What Is Back Pain?

Back pain is discomfort that can appear in any part of the back. The different parts of the back are the thoracic, cervical, or lumbar spine.

Back pain can be chronic and is commonly related to spine-related problems, such as a ruptured or herniated disc, whiplash, osteoporosis, degenerative joint disease, and/or muscle or ligament sprain /strain. Generally, the pain can be acute, especially if it is ignored over a while.

Back pain is also common after a fall or lifting heavy objects. It is essential to be careful about how you use your back during work or home activities.

Symptoms Of Back Pain

Of all the types of back pain, the most frequent is lower back pain, known as lumbago. Some of the symptoms include:

  • Dull ache
  • Sharp shooting pain
  • Stabbing pain
  • Numbness and tingling
  • Pain in the neck, low back, and arms
  • Radiating pain symptoms to the legs and feet in severe cases

Common Cause Of Back Pain

Common causes of back pain include improper lifting, poor posture, lack of regular exercise,  ruptured disc, back joint dysfunction, arthritis, and muscle spasms. A stress fracture or disease rarely causes it. Even when you have minor back pain, it is highly recommended to see a chiropractor. Early treatment often prevents long-term problems.

Chiropractic Treatment for Lower Back Pain

Chiropractic care primarily focuses on addressing common lower back pain conditions through hands-on techniques:

Spinal Manipulation and Manual Adjustment

Chiropractors use a high-velocity, short lever arm thrust to abnormal vertebrae, aiming to enhance functionality, alleviate nerve irritability, and restore back mobility. This technique is often referred to as a “chiropractic adjustment.”

Mobilization

Chiropractic mobilization involves gentle manipulation, movement, and stretching of muscles and joints. The objective is to enhance the range of motion in these areas through low-velocity techniques.

These techniques aim to enhance functionality, reduce nerve irritability, and improve the range of motion in the back. Schedule an appointment with Revolution Chiropractic Murfreesboro. Let our experienced back pain chiropractors guide you on the path to a pain-free and healthier life.
