Common Causes of Back Pain
Back pain can develop from a variety of lifestyle and medical factors, including:
- Poor Posture – Sitting for prolonged periods or improper ergonomics can strain the spine and muscles.
- Herniated or Bulging Discs – Spinal disc injuries can cause nerve compression and radiating pain.
- Muscle Strain and Overuse – Lifting heavy objects improperly or repetitive motions can lead to muscle fatigue and injury.
- Spinal Misalignment – Vertebral subluxations can create pressure on nerves and affect mobility.
- Arthritis and Degenerative Conditions – Wear and tear on the spine over time can contribute to stiffness and chronic pain.
- Injuries and Accidents – Falls, car accidents, and sports injuries can result in acute or chronic back pain.
