Common Causes of back Pain
Identifying the cause of your back pain is crucial for effective treatment. Common causes include:
-
Muscle or ligament strain: Overexertion or sudden movements can strain the back’s muscles or ligaments, causing pain.
-
Herniated or bulging discs: Discs in the spine may deteriorate or shift, compressing nearby nerves and leading to pain.
-
Arthritis: Osteoarthritis can affect the spine, narrowing the space around the spinal cord, also known as spinal stenosis.
-
Skeletal irregularities: Conditions like scoliosis, which causes an abnormal spinal curvature, often result in chronic pain.
-
Osteoporosis: Weakening of the bones can cause fractures, contributing to back pain.
At Premier Pain Clinic, we perform thorough assessments to diagnose the cause of your pain, tailoring treatments to your specific needs.
