Why Chronic Lower Back Pain Happens
Understanding the Causes of Long-Term Pain
Chronic lower back pain is often the result of a combination of factors. Some common causes include:
- Age-Related Wear and Tear: Conditions like osteoarthritis or spinal stenosis that occur as part of the natural aging process.
- Repetitive Motions or Injuries: Muscle strains or ligament sprains from physical activities, sports, or even poor posture can contribute to long-term discomfort.
- Nerve Compression: Herniated or bulging discs that press on surrounding nerves can cause radiating pain.
- Mental Stress and Tension: Emotional stress can manifest as physical pain, leading to muscle tension and worsening symptoms.
