Back pain is one of the most common medical conditions affecting people of all ages. It can range from a dull, constant ache to a sudden, sharp pain.

Chronic back pain can significantly impact quality of life, making simple daily activities a challenge.

Common Symptoms of Back Pain

- Dull or sharp pain in the lower back or neck
- Muscle tension or stiffness
- Limited mobility and difficulty bending or standing up straight
- Radiating pain in the legs, especially in cases of sciatica
- Numbness, tingling, or weakness in the legs or arms
- Pain that worsens with movement or prolonged sitting
Causes of Back Pain
Back pain can be triggered by a variety of factors
Poor posture
Long hours of sitting or standing with incorrect posture can strain the back.
Muscle or ligament strain
Lifting heavy objects or sudden awkward movements can injure the muscles or ligaments in the back.
Spinal conditions
Conditions like herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or osteoarthritis can cause back pain.
Injury or trauma
Accidents or falls can lead to fractures or sprains in the spine.
Age
The risk of back pain increases with age as the spine undergoes natural wear and tear.
How Is Back Pain Diagnosed?
To identify the cause of back pain, Dr. Purvi Deshpande may recommend the following:
Medical Evaluation :
A thorough discussion of symptoms, medical history, and a physical examination to assess movement and flexibility.
Imaging Tests :
X-rays to check for fractures or abnormal bone structures.
MRI or CT scans for detailed analysis of soft tissues, such as discs
and muscles.
Lab Tests :
Blood tests to rule out infections or inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid arthritis.
