In Ireland, physiotherapists are not legally permitted to refer patients for X-rays, as they are not one of the health professionals included in the legislation governing referrals for these investigations @IrishTimes Health & Family (page 11: 02/08/2022)

Athlete low back pain...always consider an inflammatory cause. Over the years I've treated two international rowers with AS who could compete at a high level with support. Long journey to diagnosis is common. Strong genetic link. Physios have an important role in recognition 👇🏻👏🏼
Hurling legend @MFennellyKK was just 20 when he was diagnosed w/ ankylosing spondylitis, a form of inflammatory arthritis. Michael shares his story in the new #BackinAction campaign. @KilkennyCLG @BallyhaleGAA @Offaly_GAA @officialgaa @LimerickIT Supported by @NovartisIreland
