What Causes Back Pain?

Back pain can be caused by several factors. Sometimes, back pain can be sudden and acute. This pain is usually caused by a direct injury like a fall, slip, or accident. When you have an injury to your back, usually the hard and soft tissues are impacted. This injury could be a strain, sprain, or tear to the muscles and ligaments or a fracture to one of the many bones that make up the back. Alternatively, back pain can also stem from a chronic disease or condition. Osteoporosis, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, and arthritis can cause different types of back pain and back pain symptoms.

What Are the Symptoms of Back Pain?

Back pain can be sharp and stabbing pain that comes on suddenly or dull and aching pain that gets worse with time. Sometimes, back pain is accompanied by a limited range of motion, muscle soreness, or stiffness. A common symptom that accompanies back pain is a numbness or tingling sensation. Depending on where your back condition is located on your spine, numbness and tingling can be felt in your buttocks, legs, and feet, or in your neck, shoulders, and arms.
