Back pain: Source and treatment


Back pain is the result of complex spine and muscles surrounding it and support it. Spine protects the spinal cord - a branch of the nervous system connects the brain to the rest of the body.

It is customary to divide the spine back into three parts: Part curved outward, part hip and part of the tail. All links are numbered, and the letter indicates the part which they belong. L3 vertebra, for example, is the third link in the lumbar section of the spine.

The number of vertebrae surrounding muscle, in several layers, enabling the movement of the back. A large muscle in the front of the spine called Psoas major. The large muscles that are in the back of the spine, since the back, they Erector spine muscle, Transverso-spinal muscle, semispinalis thoracic, iliocostalis thoracic, and more.

Other causes of back pain
Damage to many buildings that are in the back can cause back pain in many ways. Injury can occur in the spine, back muscles, nerves and more. The background can be a traumatic injury (injury), infections, arthritis and so on. We briefly summarize some of the important reasons for back pain.


trauma
Injury or blow to the back can cause damage to various buildings and pain. In cases of spinal cord injury pain is accompanied by various neurological deficits as well; Motor (inability to move the legs, for example), and sensory (numbness).

Fractions over a squad that damage can occur L1 compression injury of the spinal cord. Urgent and essential care to prevent further nerve damage and minimize the damage as much as possible.

Sometimes, a slight back injury or slight stretching of muscles, such as when lifting a heavy load, can lead to prolonged pain. Such pain often occur after road accidents or falls. The pain is usually located on the back, and not radiate to the buttocks or legs. This kind of pain is very common.


Non-traumatic fractures
Often, spinal fractures are not a result of trauma. These fractures can be a sign of various diseases that affect the bone and make it overly sensitive. The most common disease causing fractures in light of such a disease is unpredictable.

This disease, which appears mostly in older age and higher prevalence in women, levels of minerals, especially calcium in the bones, falls, and Ksihotn of bones hurt. Vertebral fractures appear in patients suffering from osteoporosis can lead to severe back pain.


Diseases of the intervertebral disc

Between the vertebrae in the back is a disc, cartilage tissue designed to facilitate the movement of the joints between the vertebrae. Displacement of the disc from its natural place between the vertebrae can cause pressure on the nerves located in the spinal cord or exit the spine, and be accompanied by pain and other neurological signs (such as sphincter control disorders). This may be a situation called a "slipped disc".

This injury is relatively common and typically occurs between the vertebrae L4 disk L5 or L5-S1-. The pain can be from the lower back or radiate to the buttocks, thighs and legs. In severe cases the pain is not getting better treatment includes surgery with removal of the disc to fall.

Neurodegenerative diseases

A degenerative disease of the bone - osteoarthritis, can also cause back pain when it affects the spine. The name of the disease in this special anatomical location is Spondylosis. Increased pain in motion (in contrast rheumatic pain, Hmohmrim the rest). Sometimes you can see changes in the vertebrae bones of different imaging tests.

Congenital diseases

Congenital causes of back pain include particularly vulnerable normal structure of the spine - Kyphosis or Kyposcoliosis - meaning scoliosis abnormal curve of the spine. Easy Mode also damage the closure of the spine relative to the spine can cause back pain.

Joint diseases

Among diseases that can damage the articular joints between the vertebrae is interesting to note the Reiter's syndrome. This syndrome, the autoimmune process leads to diarrheal disease triads (three) Typical symptoms: eye inflammation, inflammation of the urethra, and back pain with spinal cord injury. You can treat join diease with inversion therapy.

Other causes of back pain

Extension of the abdominal aorta can lead to severe, sharp pain in the back, because of the proximity of the aorta to the spine. Deterioration of expansion rupture can lead to rapid blood loss and massive and life-threatening situation that requires immediate and urgent attention.

Pancreatitis, appearing in the wake of biliary obstruction or chronic condition increased consumption of alcohol, may emerge known as afterbirth pain radiating to the back. May be the source of back pain cases of pancreatitis is referred pain, originating definitely "wrong" of the brain nerve pain coming from internal organs.

  1. Great article! The best solution for lower back pain is by using a inversion table.
