Lumbago, commonly known as lower back pain, is a prevalent condition affecting millions worldwide. Characterized by discomfort in the lumbar region, lumbago can range from a mild ache to severe, debilitating pain. At CORE Health Centers, we specialize in non-invasive chiropractic treatments designed to alleviate lumbago and restore your quality of life.
What Is Lumbago?
Lumbago refers to pain localized in the lower back area, often resulting from muscle strain, poor posture, or underlying spinal conditions. Symptoms may include stiffness, limited mobility, and sharp or dull aches that can interfere with daily activities. In some cases, lumbago may be accompanied by sciatica, where pain radiates down the legs due to nerve compression.
Common Causes of Lumbago
Several factors can contribute to the development of lumbago:
- Muscle or ligament strain: Overexertion or sudden movements can injure back muscles and spinal ligaments.
- Herniated or bulging discs: Discs that protrude can press on nerves, causing pain.
- Arthritis: Osteoarthritis can lead to spinal stenosis, narrowing the space around the spinal cord.
- Poor posture: Prolonged sitting or incorrect posture can strain the lower back.
- Injuries: Falls or accidents can cause acute back pain.
