What Causes Back Pain?
Pain in your spine can come from conditions and irritations, along with other potential factors such as internal organ dysfunctions like those around the pelvic and abdominal region, trauma that has affected the area, and even sources that are non-spinal in nature.
Common causes of back pain may involve:
- Nerve Compression & Spinal Cord Issues - Spinal nerve irritation, inflammation, and injury to the nerve as well as compression or bulging out of the intervertebral discs can instigate your lumbar spine problems. Sciatic symptoms, spinal stenosis, osteoporosis, spondylolisthesis, and cauda equina syndrome are other spinal cord conditions that can contribute to back pain.
- Injuries and Trauma - Traumatic injury from instances such as accidental falls, car accidents, and sports injuries can injure muscles and other soft tissues in the specific regions and even cause the spine to compress and potentially herniate or rupture your spinal discs. Ligaments that have torn or have become overstretched (sprains), overstretching and tearing of the tendons and muscle tissues (strains), and abrupt contractions of your muscular tissues (muscle spasms) may all be reasons why you are experiencing pain.
- Non-Spine Related Sources - Some causes and sources that don’t relate to any spine problems directly include back pain from pregnancy, kidney stones, tumors, and surrounding back muscles that generally cause pain on either one of your lower back sides, fibromyalgia that chronically spreads fatigue and muscle pain to adjacent areas, and tumors that damage and destroy regions around the spinal cord, its nerves, and surrounding back muscles.
