Item description

Most of us will experience lower back pain at some point in our lives -- about 80% of us, in fact common causes include:

Muscle strains or ligament sprains in your back (this is the most common cause of back pain). You may get a strain or sprain by lifting something too heavy or not using good body mechanics while lifting. Some people also strain their back by sneezing, coughing, twisting, or bending over.
Broken bones in your spine from an accident, such as fall or car crash. You may have a higher risk of broken bones if you have conditions like spondylolysis or osteoporosis.
Nerve compression, which may be caused by arthritis or a herniated disk, which is when one of the cartilage disks in your back tears.
Spinal stenosis, which is when the spinal canal in your lower back shrinks and puts pressure on your spinal cord. This can cause severe lower back pain or sciatic nerve pain, which can cause pain in your butt or down your leg. You may also have numbness, tingling, or weakness down your leg to your foot.
Osteoarthritis or ankylosing spondylitis can cause lower back pain and stiffness in your lower back due to inflammation in your spine.
