Low Back Pain is pain, often accompanied by stiffness, in the lower part of the back. Back pain is usually referred to as acute, which means the pain occurs suddenly, but lasts for only a short period of time, or chronic, which means symptoms last for a long period of time, or come and go.
The back includes the area from below the neck to the tailbone. Low back pain usually occurs when there is an injury to the ligaments or muscles that hold the vertebrae in the lumbar spine in place. The lumbar spine is the segment of the spine that is located above the pelvis, and the vertebrae are the bones of the spine. Injury can be caused by overuse, or a sudden or awkward movement that strains or sprains the ligaments, muscles, or joints of the lower back. Low back pain caused by strain or sprain is considered acute. Other causes of acute low back pain include a fall that injures the back and violent sneezing or chronic violent coughing.
Low back pain is also a symptom of many diseases and disorders that affects the bones and joints of the spine. This type of low back pain is chronic, and can be caused by arthritis, osteoporosis, obesity, a malignant tumor or cancer in the spinal area, a type of arthritis called ankylosing spondylitis, a herniated (bulging) disk, or a pinched sciatic nerve. Chronic low back pain can also occur in people whose work involves heavy lifting, bending, and long periods of standing on a daily basis, and during pregnancy. Low back pain is often accompanied by stiffness and difficulty with normal movement, muscle spasms, and pain that becomes worse with any type of straining.
