Back Problems
Even with today's techology, the exact reason or cause of low back problems can be found in very few people. Most times, the symptoms are blamed on poor muscle tone in the back, muscle tension or spasm, back sprains, ligament or muscle tears, and joint problems. Sometimes, nerves from the spinal cord can be irritated by "slipped" discs, causing buttock or leg pain. This may also cause numbness, tingling, or weakness in the legs.
People who are in poor physical condition or do work that includes heavy labor or long periods of sitting or standing are at greater risk for low back problems. Emotional stress or long periods of inactivity may make back symptoms even worse.
Low back problems are often painful. But the good news is that very few people turn out to have a major problem with the bones or joints of the back, or a dangerous medical condition.
If you are having back pain, make sure you see your physician soon and get back to being at your optimum level.
