| | Back Pain - Causes, Treatment, Prevention, Relief |
 | | Back Pain, especially in the lower back (lumbar spine), is a problem that most people experience at some time in their lives. |  | | Lower back pain caused by strained muscles or ligaments is the most common type of back pain (often referred to as lumbago). |  | | Though most back pain is caused by muscle or ligament strain, there are other causes such as damage or injury to spinal nerves, bones, or discs. |

| | Medinfo: Low back pain |
 | | Back pain may be combined with pain into the leg, travelling down below the knee, this is otherwise known as sciatica, because the main nerve to the leg (the sciatic nerve) is being irritated by pressure on it. |  | | The pain may force you to rest, but this is a result of the pain, and not a good treatment for back pain. |  | | There are various other symptoms which may go with back pain, some of which suggest problems other than back problems, and some of which point to the need for more urgent action by you and your doctor. |

 | | Back pain is the second most common neurological ailment in the United States — only headache is more common. |  | | Occasionally, pain felt in one part of the body may “radiate” from a disorder or injury elsewhere in the body. |  | | Other studies are comparing different health care approaches to the management of acute low back pain (standard care versus chiropractic, acupuncture, or massage therapy). |

| | Low Back Pain |
 | | Pain that goes to the foot is called sciatica because it is pain that follows the course of the sciatic nerve. |  | | They are usually given either in the area that is felt to possibly be the source of the pain, such as in to a muscle or facet joint, or around the nerves of the spine (an epidural or nerve root injection). |  | | The next more invasive type of procedure that is done for low back pain is the procedure aimed at removing or destroying the area that is felt to be causing the pain. |

| | Exercise for back pain |
 | | Depending the patient’s specific diagnosis and level of pain, the back pain exercise and rehabilitation program will be very different, so it is important for patients to see a spine specialist who is trained to develop an individualized exercise program provide instruction on using the correct form and technique. |  | | Active forms of back pain exercise (physical therapy) are typically necessary to rehabilitate the spine and help alleviate back pain. |  | | Importantly, a regular back pain exercise routine provides patients with the means to help avoid recurrences of low back pain, and helps reduce severity and duration of potential future episodes of low back pain. |

 | | Pain spreading into the legs may not necessarily be due to pinching or irritation of nerves, but may come from deeper structures in the back that tend to produce a deep, dull aching type of pain spreading elsewhere. |  | | The low back pain sufferer then loses their spinal corset (stability muscles) and hence the joints and discs of the back are no longer protected, exposing the spine to trauma. |  | | The first time someone has an incident of low back pain, the onset timing of the deepest abdominal muscle (the transversus abdominis) is delayed. |

| | Back Pain - neurologychannel |
 | | Fortunately, most back and neck pain is temporary, resulting from short-term stress on the muscles or ligaments that support the spine rather than from a serious injury or medical condition such as nerve damage or kidney disease. |  | | The back is an intricate structure of bones, ligaments, muscles, nerves, and tendons. |  | | Aging produces wear and tear on the spine that may result in conditions (e.g., disc degeneration, spinal stenosis) that produce neck and back pain. |

 | | Pain relief is obtained by interfering with pain signals to the brain and by causing the release of natural painkillers (called endorphins). |  | | Firstly, most back pain comes from the soft tissues of the back (such as ligaments and muscles) and these can't be seen on an x-ray. |  | | Manipulation may help to get rid of a spell of back pain – it is most often done by chiropractors and osteopaths but also by physiotherapists and some doctors. |

| | Low Back Pain: Tips on Pain Relief and Prevention -- familydoctor.org |
 | | Many things can cause low back injuries--muscle strain or spasm, sprains of ligaments (which attach bone to bone), joint problems or a "slipped disk." The most common cause is using your back muscles in activities you're not used to, like lifting heavy furniture or doing yard work. |  | | This may mean losing weight (because being overweight can make back pain worse), getting your muscles in better shape, and improving your posture when you're sitting, standing and sleeping. |  | | Your pain doesn't seem to be getting better after 2 to 3 weeks. |
