What causes back pain?

April 3, 2023

Back pain can be prevented 80% of the time!

Back pain can be caused by a variety of factors, including:

  1. Strained muscles or ligaments: Lifting heavy objects, twisting, or sudden movements can strain the muscles or ligaments in the back, leading to pain.
  2. Poor posture: Sitting or standing with poor posture can cause back pain over time.
  3. Arthritis: Arthritis in the spine can cause inflammation and pain.
  4. Bulging or ruptured discs: The discs that cushion the vertebrae in the spine can bulge or rupture, causing pain.
  5. Osteoporosis: Weakening of the bones due to osteoporosis can cause compression fractures in the spine and result in back pain.
  6. Spinal stenosis: A narrowing of the spinal canal can put pressure on the nerves in the spine and cause pain.
  7. Scoliosis: Abnormal curvature of the spine can cause pain.
  8. Infections or tumors: Rarely, infections or tumors in the spine can cause back pain.

It’s important to consult a healthcare professional to determine the specific cause of back pain and to develop an appropriate treatment plan.
