Low Back Pain
Lower back pain pain comes from muscle strain, tension or injury in the lower back, usually affecting the bones, discs, nerves or spine muscles. The lumbar spine (lower back) is very susceptible to injury. Depending upon the injury sustained by the muscles, ligaments, discs, joints, or vertebrae, symptoms may vary. But the most common ones are:
Sharp or dull pain: The pain might come from time to time, and sometimes it is constant. It is accompanied by inflammation or soreness.
The pain doesn't decrease when you rest.
The lower back muscles feel tight or constantly cramped.
You find it difficult to sit, sleep, or perform other daily activities.
The pain from your back radiates to the legs.
There's a loss of bowel movement or pain in the groin area.
There is numbness or tingling, especially in your feet.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Low back pain (LBP) is a health issue that all of us will deal with in some form over our lifetime. It can happen anytime in a person’s lifespan, but is particularly relevant in the 40 to 80 year age range. It is estimated by Medline that 8 out of 10 people will experience LBP at least once in their lifespan. It is the leading cause of job-related disability and the biggest contributor to missed work days.
Herniated discs, ligament sprains, muscle strains, and chronic conditions like sciatica are common causes of lower back pain. Sciatica pain can start in your lower back and extend through your buttocks, calf and leg.
