What causes lower back pain?

Discomfort around the lower (lumbar) spine is among the most common orthopedic problems in people of all ages. This portion of the spine plays a large role in many everyday movements and bears the weight of the upper body, rendering it particularly susceptible to injuries and degenerative conditions. Some of the most common causes of lower back pain include:

• Sciatica
• Osteoarthritis
• Fractures
• Bulging or herniated discs
• Scoliosis
• Degenerative disc disease
• Spinal stenosis
• Muscle strains
