What is Low Back Pain

Low back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal conditions, affecting millions of people worldwide. It can range from a dull ache to sharp, debilitating pain that interferes with daily activities. Whether it's a sudden injury or a chronic issue that has developed over time, low back pain can significantly impact the quality of life.

Why Does Low Back Pain Happen?

There are several reasons why you might be experiencing low back pain, including:

  • Muscle or Ligament Strains and Sprains - Overuse, poor posture, improper lifting, or sudden movements can strain the muscles and ligaments in your lower back.
  • Disc Issues - Herniated or bulging discs can put pressure on nerves leading to pain, numbness, or tingling.
  • Joint Dysfunction - The spine's facet joints or sacroiliac joints can become irritated or restricted, causing discomfort.
  • Postural Imbalances - Sitting for long periods, poor ergonomics, or improper movement patterns can lead to chronic tension and discomfort.
  • Inflammation & Arthritis - Conditions like osteoarthritis, degenerative disc disease, or systemic inflammation can contribute to pain and stiffness in the lower back.
  • Nerve Compression - Sciatica and other nerve-related issues can cause radiating pain from the lower back down the legs.
