Lower Back Pain

Description:

Lower back pain refers to discomfort or pain felt in the lumbar region, typically below the ribcage and above the hips. It can range from a dull ache to sharp, stabbing pain and may be caused by various factors such as muscle strain, poor posture, or underlying conditions like herniated discs or arthritis.

Causes:

• Muscle or ligament strain due to heavy lifting or improper movements.
• Herniated or slipped disc in the spine.
• Poor posture leading to pressure on the lower back.
• Arthritis or degenerative conditions affecting the spine.
• Skeletal issues such as scoliosis.

If pain persists or worsens, medical evaluation is necessary for proper treatment and relief.
