ABSTRACT
Non-specific back pain classified as Unspecified Dorsalgia (ICD-11: ME84.Z) is defined as pain of the posterior trunk where the anatomical or structural pathology remains unidentified following clinical examination. This condition is highly prevalent among automobile drivers due to prolonged sitting, poor posture, and constant vibration exposure. This study examined the contributing factors of Unspecified Dorsalgia in drivers and evaluated the therapeutic effectiveness of Aesculus hippocastanum 30C in improving Unspecified Dorsalgia using the Quebec Back Pain Disability Scale. Findings indicated that high rates of Unspecified Dorsalgia are linked to long driving hours, inadequate ergonomics, and physical inactivity. The study concludes that addressing these issues through ergonomic improvements and regular exercise, combined with the administration of Aesculus hippocastanum 30C, significantly reduces Unspecified Dorsalgia and improves drivers' health and productivity.
