Common Causes Of Back Pain
There are numerous factors that may be causing your back pain. Seeing a physical therapist is the fastest way to find out for sure!
Muscle or Ligament Strain
This is the most common cause of back pain. Straining of the muscles or ligaments in the back can result from lifting heavy objects or sudden awkward movements.
Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD)
Degenerative disc disease is another major cause of back discomfort as we age. A dull, painful ache in the lower back is familiar in people with this condition, as is difficulty standing or walking for lengthy periods.
Poor Posture
Back pain can be caused by poor posture. If your posture is incorrect, it can strain other parts of your body, causing pain, inflammation, or dysfunction.
Herniated Discs
These can cause significant pain in the back and radiculopathy in your thigh, leg, or foot, as well as other underlying issues. A herniated disc can also cause sciatica, which is quite painful!
The good news is that physical therapy at our clinic can help you if you’re struggling with any of these conditions involving your back.
How Can Physical Therapy Help Me Find Back Pain Relief?
A treatment plan will be designed depending on how you developed back pain, the exact area, and your medical history after your initial evaluation.
Our therapists will work with you to release any tight places so that you can begin to move more freely.
The goal is to minimize your discomfort as rapidly as possible while also strengthening your core muscles to avoid re-injury.
We’ll also show you how to use ergonomics to protect your spine while doing everyday tasks like sitting at a computer or driving. To guarantee that you do not re-injure your back, it is highly recommended that you finish the entire course of your therapy sessions!
