Low Back Pain is simply defined as pain in the lower back(below the ribs and above the legs).It
is a common musculoskeletal disorder affecting about 70% adults at some point
in their life.Men and women are equally affected and it occurs between ages 30 and 50 partly due to aging process.
It
ranks second only to upper respiratory illness as a reason for office visits to
the physician, making it a leading contributor to missed work.
CLASSIFIATION:
It
can be classified based on the duration
of the symptom as acute(less than 4 weeks),sub-acute(4-12 weeks) or
chronic(more than 12 weeks).
CAUSES:
The
lower back is the connection between the upper and lower body, therefore it bears most of the
body’s weight.
Pain
in the low back may arise from several structures in the lumbar spine area
including the lumber the spine itself, intervertebral discs, ligaments around
the spine, spinal cord, nerves and muscles of the low back and the skin over
the lumbar area.
With
increasing age, bone strength and muscle elasticity tend to decrease. The discs
begin to lose fluid and flexibility which reduces their ability to cushion the
vertebrae.
Also,
lifting heavy objects or stretching can cause a strain, sprain or spasm in one
of the muscles or ligaments of the back. Degenerative diseases like arthritis, osteoporosis
or congenital anomalies of the spine can also cause low back pain. It may also
arise from diseases of some internal organs of the pelvis and abdomen like the
prostate gland in men.
Obesity
,stress, poor sleeping position and inappropriate posture can also contribute
to Low Back Pain.
SYMPTOMS:
Low
back pain presents with a variety of symptoms depending on the cause. It can be accompanied with pain or
numbness of the legs, loss of bladder or bowel control which almost always
denotes neurological problem. It can also be accompanied by change in the
consistency ,frequency and urgency of urination which denotes a problem with
prostate gland.
MANAGEMENT:
This
entails a detailed history and thorough physical examination by the doctor to
determine the cause. However, if the back pain has lasted for more than four
weeks or the doctor suspects it’s more than a muscle pain further
investigations are done like X-rays, Computerized Tomograph (CT),Magnetic
Resonance Imaging(MRI) to mention a few.
PREVENTION:
If
you have had an episode of low back pain, it can most likely re-occur. Listed
below are a few tips to help keep your back healthy and avoid further pain:
