Signos y exámenes:

Un examen físico centrado en la espalda, el abdomen y las extremidades confirma el dolor de espalda y los espasmos musculares ; sin embargo, dicho examen no muestra una causa específica (como, por ejemplo, una herniación discal ) o algún problema neurológico (como debilidad o cambio en la sensibilidad).

La radiografía de la columna generalmente es normal. Otros exámenes pueden ser TC de la columna lumbosacra o una IRM de la columna lumbosacra .
