Back Pain

If a spinal nerve is compressed and its function is impaired, it can lead to burning, tingling, tension, or severe pain.

The primary cause of back pain is often weak back and abdominal muscles, coupled with insufficient movement and poor posture. Back pain is typically harmless and often resolves spontaneously within a few days. Consequently, many individuals do not seek medical attention for brief episodes.

Chronic back pain

Chronic back pain is frequently linked to degenerative processes, with the most common causes being herniated discs, spinal canal stenosis, or synovial cysts in the spinal canal. In these cases, the source of the pain originates from an irritated nerve root.

Treatment

Pain from spinal disorders should primarily be treated with anti-inflammatory medications along with physical therapy. However, in many cases of degenerative changes in the spine due to herniated discs or spinal canal narrowing, prompt surgery may be required. Urgent neurosurgical evaluation is recommended, especially in the presence of serious neurological deficits such as muscle paralysis, urinary issues, or bowel dysfunction.
