People ( n = 152) from South Central, East and North Mainland China with LBP completed an online survey about what they believed caused their persistent or recurrent LBP and where these understandings came from. The secondary aim was to investigate the sources of these pain beliefs. The primary aim of this study was to explore the discourses underlying the beliefs of people in China about what causes their persistent or recurrent LBP. However, there is lack of knowledge about people’s discourses regarding their LBP in China. Chinese philosophies are nested into the daily life of people in China, which is likely to influence pain beliefs. Delayed recovery, poor clinical outcomes and persistence of LBP are associated with negative pain beliefs about LBP. Low back pain (LBP) is the second highest cause of health burden in China.
