Back Pain

How does back pain occur?


Back pain can appear at any age due to many reasons like injury, excessive work or exercise, poor posture, or some other medical conditions. However, back pain is more common in the elderly as they are more prone to developing it due to declining bone health. Back pain arises due to problems in the parts of the spine which are made up of muscles, ligaments, disks, and tendons supported by soft tissues. Inflammation, swelling, or strains in any of these parts create back pain that can last for days to weeks or months.

Sometimes back pain can lead to pain in lower body parts because the nerves in association with the spine start getting affected. Back pain can go away with the provided care but if it persists, a doctor’s consultation is necessary.

You should see the doctor if you feel numbness or tingling sensations along with back pain, if the pain doesn’t go away with rest if the cause of back pain is injury, if the pain arises with fever, or if there is weight loss with any obvious reasons.

Back pain can also run to the buttocks and legs and might be challenging while bending, lifting weight, or even sitting. It affects body movement, you may also feel tenderness in the spine which builds frustration.

Although you can deal with back pain with ample rest, hot compress, or some home remedies but you must see the door when it persists and the treatment is necessary. Your doctor may suggest over-the-counter painkiller medications or muscle relaxants.
