Lower back pain affects nearly 80% of adults at some point in their lives, ranging from a dull, persistent ache to sharp, debilitating discomfort that limits daily movement. Understanding the underlying root cause is the critical first step toward lasting recovery.
Common Causes of Lower Back Pain
* Herniated or Bulging Discs: Soft spinal cushions protrude or rupture, irritating adjacent spinal nerves and causing localized back pain or radiating leg pain (Sciatica).
* Muscle Strains & Ligament Sprains: Sudden awkward movements, heavy lifting, or poor biomechanics strain the supporting lumbar tissue.
* Postural Imbalances: Prolonged sitting and poor desk ergonomics overwork lumbar muscles and compress intervertebral structures.
* Degenerative Disc Disease & Osteoarthritis: Age-related wear on spinal joints and discs reduces spinal flexibility and causes chronic stiffness.
* Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Dysfunction: Inflammation or abnormal motion at the junction between the spine and pelvis.
