Lower Back Pain Treatment for Patients in Pensacola, Milton, Pace, Gulf Breeze, FL & Beyond
Lower back pain is a very common occurrence among people of all ages. Men and women, boys and girls, are all prone to developing back problems. The older we get, the more at risk we become in developing back problems. First, we have to ask "How?" and "Why?" do back problems occur.
There are many different reasons that someone could experience back pain. From tight muscles to spinal stenosis and sciatica. In the cases of spinal stenosis and sciatica, the resulting pain is due to the sciatic nerve being agitated. Whether that agitation comes from a bulged disc or the narrowing space within your spine, you are likely to feel lower back pain that radiates down into the legs.
When asking how these problems occur, there are some answers that are more obvious than others. For example, a person who suffers a traumatic injury from say, a car accident or sports injury, will have a more identifiable cause of their back pain. However, there are cases where not one single event is the main cause of the problem, but perhaps the "straw that broke the camel's back". For example, a healthy, active individual could all the sudden one-day experience back pain, seemingly out of nowhere. This could be attributed to years and years of bad posture until one day the disc faces too much pressure and it bulges out and affects the nerve. The key is whether or not the nerve is affected. There are many cases where people have bulged discs that do not affect the nerve, so the person never truly experiences back pain in the manner that someone with an affected nerve would.
