Low Back Pain

Low back pain is pain or stiffness in the lower portion of the spine (between the ribs and the pelvis). It can appear all of a sudden (acute) or gradually become an ongoing problem (chronic).

Symptoms may include:

• Aching low back that won’t go away
• Muscle stiffness
• Pain with walking or standing
• Difficulty in bending or lifting.
• Hips or legs that radiate pain.
• Lack of numbness or tingling (if nerves are involved)

Causes of low back pain:

• Poor sitting posture
• Prolonged desk work
• Heavy lifting
• A strain of the muscles or ligaments.
• Herniated (slipped) disc
• Sciatica
• Degenerative disc disease
• Inflammation of the backbone.
• Weak core muscles
• Obesity
• Insufficient exercise activities

It’s important to know the root cause to make the right decision on how to treat.

When to consult a Physiotherapist.

If you have any of the following, see a Physiotherapist:

• Pain that persists longer than a week.
• Walking and/or standing is difficult.
• Leg pain that radiates down the leg
• Repeated bouts of back pain
• Movement that impairs daily functioning.
• After injury back pain

If there is any loss of bladder or bowel control, or if the back pain is accompanied by a great loss of strength in the legs or is accompanied by a sensation of numbness in the saddle area, seek urgent medical attention.
