Back Pain Treatments

Back pain can be a frustrating condition because it is virtually “invisible” to others. It can also be incredibly restrictive because of the limitations it places on a person's range of motion and performance of daily activities, and can cause excruciating pain for people experiencing it. Back pain can result from a multitude of issues relating to the spine. Because the spine is an integral component of both the skeletal system and the nervous system, it is logical to expect that spinal issues can have far-reaching consequences.

Among the most common causes of back pain are:

  • Degenerative disc disease causes pain because it increases friction between the vertebrae.
  • Spinal stenosis puts intense pressure on the spinal cord and other nerves, which can be quite painful for the individual experiencing it.
  • Spinal infections typically cause pain that is made worse with weight-bearing activities.
  • Kyphosis, an excessive forward curvature of the spine, leads to back pain associated with bad posture.
  • Spinal cord compression causes pain when the spinal cord is compressed by bone fragments as a result of a fracture involving the spine's vertebrae.
