Always be very sure of
the cause of your back pain before taking any medicines. Because,
using over the counter medicines without knowing the real cause of
your back pain can be dangerous. It is thus advisable that you meet
your doctor and get your condition diagnosed to know the ailing
factor. This will not only treat the root cause behind your back pain
but will also help reduce the intensity of the pain.
Lower back pain in the lumbar region is
the outcome of many possible factors. Some of the prominent causes
of lower back pain include:
a. Old Age: No body can help you at
this stage of life. The bones due to age decompress and the lumbar
spine throughout your life takes stress for all sort of work
performed by you. The decompression can cause the nerve roots of the
spine to degenerate. Thus the pain may start at your back and make
your movements quite troublesome. Exercise would be the best remedy
for this problem.
b. Accident Or Fall: A fracture or
twist or muscle spasm due to the injury may also cause the pain. The
pain in fracture is very irritating and unbearable. The person
suffers very much. Muscle spasms due to fall may cause severe pain.
Though the pain is temporary yet it needs medical care and
precaution.
c. Sciatica: It is another slipped disc
problem that tortures whole of your lower body, from lower back to
the feet, with pain. The sciatica nerve protruding is the main cause
of this problem.
d. Some of the health conditions also
cause lower back pain. Pregnancy in women can be the cause of lower
back pain. Spinal tumor can also introduce this problem. Kidney
stones, pelvic inflammatory diseases and gallstones are the other
causes of lower pain. When back pain is associated with other
diseases, it is a must to consult a physician and get a prescribed
treatment.
