1. Lumbar Strain
This type of back pain typically occurs due to overuse or sudden movements, leading to strain or sprain of the muscles and ligaments in the lower back. Symptoms may include stiffness, muscle spasms, and localized pain that worsens with movement.
2. Shoulder Pain
A herniated disc occurs when the soft inner core of a spinal disc protrudes through the tough outer layer, pressing on nearby nerves and causing pain, numbness, or weakness in the back and legs. This condition often results from age-related wear and tear or sudden trauma.
3. Sciatica
Sciatica refers to pain that radiates along the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back down the back of each leg. It can be caused by a herniated disc, spinal stenosis, or piriformis syndrome, resulting in sharp, shooting pain, tingling, or numbness that may extend from the buttocks to the feet.
4. Degenerative Disc Disease
This condition involves the gradual deterioration of the spinal discs over time, leading to chronic back pain, stiffness, and decreased mobility. It commonly occurs with aging and can be exacerbated by factors such as poor posture or repetitive stress.
5. Spondylolisthesis
Spondylolisthesis occurs when a vertebra slips out of place, often due to degenerative changes, congenital abnormalities, or repetitive stress. This can result in localized back pain, as well as nerve compression and related symptoms if the displaced vertebra impinges on spinal nerves.
