Understanding Wear and Tear of Multifidus Muscle and its Potential Impact on Lumbar Spine Degeneration
The Multifidus muscle stabilises the vertebrae as the spine moves
- it is an important core muscle stabiliser and is involved in static and dynamic spinal stability
The erector Spinae runs along the lumbar, thoracic and cervical spine
- its function is to straighten the back and provide side-to-side rotation

Degenerative lumbar kyphosis patients showed more significant atrophy of the erector spinae muscle
