Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) was performed on 89 female athletes (26 handball players and 63 track and field athletes) to clarify the associations between symptoms of lumbago and lumbar alignment in MRI. The lumbar alignments are lumbosacral angle (LSA), angle of lumbar curvature (ALC), disk wedge angle (DWA) and angle of lumbosacral curvature (ALSC). The average LSA of all subjects was 140.81°±5.76 (154.82°-126.55°), ALC was 32.84°±7.84 (48.64°-13.62°), and ALSC was 46.95°±9.47 (72.34°-23.63°). The average LSA of subjects with lumbago was 140.02°±5.67, and that of subjects without lumbago 142.02°±5.76. The average ALC of subjects with lumbago was 33.00°±7.98, and that of subjects without lumbago 32.58°±7.73. There were no statistically significant correlations between lumbago and LSA or ALC. Further investigation will be required to determine whether lumbar alignment is the main cause of lumbago.
