What causes low back pain?

An occasional back ache may be caused by overexertion, but with proper rest and attention to the combination of work and rest, this pain may be relieved or disappear. However, if there are frequent symptoms of low back pain, it should be considered as a lumbar muscle strain, because lumbar muscle strain can easily lead to lumbar muscle and ligament damage, and the symptoms of soreness appear. If this cause is ruled out, the following causes should be considered.

Clause. 1. Trauma to the lower back: Whether there is a mild trauma or a severe trauma to the lower back, it may lead to muscle damage in the lower back and local soreness.

Clause. 2. Standing and sitting for a long time: low back pain may also be caused by standing and sitting for a long time, because standing and sitting for a long time can easily lead to damage to the muscles and ligaments of the lower back, and there are symptoms of local pain and soreness.

Clause. 3. Cold in the lower back: Some patients have symptoms of low back pain, which may be caused by cold in the lower back, because cold in the lower back can easily lead to spasms of the fascia, ligaments and muscles in the lower back, and the symptoms of soreness.

Clause. 4. Lumbar intervertebral disc herniation: This disease is very common, and it is mainly manifested as low back pain after the attack. It may also be accompanied by decreased muscle strength and numbness in the lower limbs, as well as sciatica and intermittent claudication.

Clause. 5. Lumbar spinal stenosis: The typical symptom of lumbar spinal stenosis is low back pain, especially when the patient stands or walks for a long time, this pain is extremely strong.

Clause. 6. Lumbar spondylolisthesis: This disease is more common in the elderly, and it is mainly manifested as persistent low back pain after it appears. If this pain is not treated in a timely manner, it may radiate to the back, causing the patient to experience symptoms of radiating back pain.

Clause. 7. Lumbar spine osteoplasia: with lumbar spine osteoplasia, most patients have no obvious symptoms, and only a few patients will have corresponding discomfort, such as low back pain, swelling pain, stiffness, intermittent claudication, lower limb weakness, etc.

Most of the low back pain is related to the seven causes introduced above, and it is hoped that patients with this can pay special attention to it, seek medical attention in a regular hospital in time, and do a good job of prevention and treatment according to the triggers to eliminate the harm. However, during the recovery period of low back pain, patients should pay attention to some contraindications, such as avoiding standing for a long time, sitting for a long time, squatting for a long time, avoiding long-term bending over, avoiding excessive weight bearing on the waist, etc., which can assist in medical treatment and promote the recovery of the disease.

There are many causes of low back pain, and the most common causes are the following:

1. Local muscle strain, inflammation of local ligaments, degeneration of vertebral bodies, bone hyperplasia, herniation of intervertebral discs, spondylolisthesis, spinal stenosis, and compulsory spondylitis can all cause low back pain.

2. Local trauma to the lumbar spine, such as spinal fractures, tears of ligaments, muscles, and joint capsules, etc., will cause low back pain.

3. Patients with cardiovascular disease and chest pain can also cause back pain such as angina, myocardial infarction, biliary colic, pancreatic disease, gastric and duodenal tumors, etc.

There are many causes of low back pain, generally speaking, sitting for a long time, heavy physical work, incorrect exercise posture, or inflammation of the lower back can lead to low back pain.

Low back pain is common for several reasons:

1. Strain diseases, due to long-term fatigue, cold and other factors, resulting in strain of low back muscles, fascia and other tissues, and then the symptoms of low back pain and discomfort.

2. Degenerative diseases, due to the degeneration of the lumbar spine, there are diseases such as osteoplasia, osteoporosis, and lumbar disc herniation that induce low back pain and discomfort.

3. Trauma, trauma can lead to soft tissue contusion or fracture of the lower back, causing pain and discomfort.

In everyday life, low back pain is a common symptom, it is not a disease. The most common low back fasciitis, myofasciitis is caused by long-term sitting or standing for a long time, local inflammation accumulation, and strain. Lumbar muscle strain can also cause low back pain, which is a further development of low back fasciitis, and usually causes local pain points, pain, and limited movement of the lumbar muscles.

Severe lumbar disc herniation, lumbar spinal stenosis, lumbar compression fracture, etc. can also cause symptoms of low back pain. Diseases that are too severe, such as aortic dissection and renal colic, can also cause low back pain. Therefore, if there is chronic low back pain, you need to go to the hospital for examination and ** in time.
