Low Back Pain
The Low back is often injured when we lift heavy objects, bend frequently, or sit too long. There are many structures in the low back that can be the root cause for pain. The vertebrae of the spinal column and pelvis can be shifted out of alignment. causing a pinched nerve, sometimes called sciatica. Spinal stenosis is a condition when the vertebrae shifts forward as a result of muscle tension and posture causing bilateral nerve irritability and bilateral leg pain. A common low back problem is disc herniation. This Is a condition that causes the fluid of the disc (a thick oil like fluid) to shift backward or to either side causing pressure on a nerve referring pain into the buttock or/and leg.
