Symptoms and Causes of Lower Back Pain

Lumbar back pain can range from slight discomfort to severe aches to chronic pain that hinders your overall quality of life. Essentially every adult will experience some form of lower back pain at one point in their lives.

Some common symptoms of lower back pain:

• Muscle aches along the lower spinal region
• Stabbing or shooting pain sensation
• Pain radiating down your leg(s)
• Pain improving while you recline
• Pain worsening by standing, walking, bending, or lifting

Some common causes leading to lower back pain involve:

• Nerve compression and spinal cord issues - The nerves along your spinal cord can experience compression, inflammation, injury, or irritation, in addition to the intervertebral discs bulging out, which can all insinuate lower pain and spinal complications. Certain spinal cord conditions such as cauda equina syndrome, osteoporosis, sciatica, spinal stenosis, and spondylolisthesis can also be contributing to lumbar back pain.
• Congenital and skeletal irregularities - Skeletal irregularities and congenital abnormalities might also be root causes of your back pain. Such conditions may include scoliosis, lordosis, kyphosis, and certain congenital birth defects such as spina bifida.
• Age-related degenerative conditions - Degenerative diseases can also play a major role in inducing pain and even damage to the region, such as intervertebral disc disease and spondylosis, in addition to certain arthritis conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and spondylitis.
• Accidents and injuries leading to back pain - Traumatic accidents and injuries such as falling, automobile accidents, and sports injuries can inflict pain and injury on your soft tissues, muscles, and can even herniate or rupture one of your spinal discs. Sprains, strains, and muscle spasms can all possibly add to the pain you are dealing with.
