A more in depth discussion of back pain follows:
Back pain is a very common medical condition, and is in fact one of the most common reasons we at DISCOVER CHIROPRACTIC are consulted. If you've been suffering - we can help.
A basic description of anatomy will help you to understand the complexity of the “lumbar spine,” the medical term for what is commonly referred to as the lower back.
The lumbar spine is made up of 5 separate bones or “vertebra” essentially stacked on top of one another.
Each vertebra is separated by a disc, which acts as a shock absorber, and allows you to bend, twist and rotate at each level independently. The separation that the disc provides also allows an essential space for the spinal nerve roots to exit.
This entire system is bound by fibrous bands called ligaments, and serves as attachments and levers for many different muscles.
Injury to any one of these delicate structures can result in profound symptoms. Moreover, it may be difficult for you to determine the source of your pain, since symptoms may be closely related. Even though symptoms from one person to the next may be similar, treatment may be very different depending on the source of the injury. This is why it is so important to have an experience clinician make the diagnosis.
Whether you're suffering from a stiff back or severe pain, we can help. There is no need to live with pain or stiffness any longer.
