Instructions: SOAP format is the documentation style you will be using in your clinicals; this also adheres to the thought processes involved in formulating the correct diagnosis and treatment plan. You will present the subjective data first, including all questions that you want to ask. Next is the gathering of objective data that supports your subjective data; if there is none given, then you will determine by system what kind of physical exam elements you want to elicit. After this, you are ready to provide differentials and a working diagnosis based on the above data. After arriving at the appropriate working diagnosis, you will then formulate a treatment plan. Please be sure to follow the template below for your initial discussion board postings. Postings should be concise and 
NOT in narrative format. 

Use evidence based practice

Case Study Chosen:

1. Linda is a 45-year-old female who returns to the office four weeks after a slip and fall at home. Initially, she had some mild-to-moderate soreness that was alleviated with heat and occasional Aleve. She now presents with pain across her lower back, pain with sitting and standing, and radiation of pain and numbness through her right buttock and down through her right thigh. She is taking Aleve twice daily and Tylenol every eight hours with moderate relief of pain, but it doesn’t help with the numbness. The pain wakes her at night. There has been no change in her bladder or bowel habits.
