The Most Common Causes of Back Pain
The spine is an intricate part of the body, consisting of ligaments, bones, tendons, nerves and muscles. The spine comprises three different sections: the cervical, thoracic and lumbar. Sometimes the joints, muscles, tendons, discs or nerves are out of whack and don’t align properly, which can lead to issues such as,
- Bulging discs
- Herniated discs
- Degenerative disc disease
- Spinal stenosis
- Pinched nerves
- Fractures
- Sprain and strains
- Muscle or tendon spasms
- Arthritis
- Scoliosis
- Tumors
