Sometimes it's been muscular, more frequently it's been a lateral shift. I doubt if an AI solution would be of any use to me personally as what usually sorts my back out is a series of physio sessions involving massage and manipulation. Unless I need painkillers I don't see my GP as I can get an appointment with a non NHS physio far quicker than with my GP.<br>I do see an advantage with this new service though, if it can reduce waiting times and provide effective diagnosis &amp; treatment. This would enable doctor and physio staff to concentrate on more problematic/serious cases.<br>What it shouldn't be allowed to do is reduce the numbers of staff who can do the hands on stuff.</p><p><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/NHS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NHS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Physio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Physio</span></a></p>
