Back pain in the lumbar area is one of the most common conditions in the adult population. Discover the main causes, the most effective remedies and the signs that indicate when it is time to contact a doctor.
From muscle stress to spinal pathologies: what is behind the pain?
The lower back is subjected to great stress, especially in sedentary or physically intense jobs. The most common causes include muscle contractures, poor posture, herniated discs, osteoarthritis and spinal problems. In some cases, pain can also result from kidney or inflammatory conditions, making a correct diagnosis important.
How to relieve pain and reduce the risk of relapse
Treatment depends on the cause. For mild pain, moderate rest, warm and anti-inflammatory compresses may be enough. Physiotherapy plays a key role in strengthening the lower back muscles. Maintaining good posture, avoiding excessive strain and exercising regularly are excellent preventative tools.
Warning signs not to be ignored
If the pain is persistent, radiates to the legs or buttocks, is accompanied by tingling or weakness, or if it arises suddenly after a trauma, it is essential to consult a specialist. The presence of fever, incontinence, or weight loss can also indicate more serious conditions, such as infections or spinal tumors.
