The lower back is a region below the ribcage which is also called the lumbar region, connects the thoracic spine and the sacral spine. Made up of 33 bones, our spinal cord, also called vertebrae, supports the entire weight of our upper body. In between every two bones lies a disc with jelly inside (nucleus pulposus) to prevent one bone from gliding over the other. It absorbs shocks and prevents injuries. Wear and tear or injury to the discs squeezes out the jelly and puts pressure on the nerves causing acute pain which hinders normal movement.
Whether the symptoms are as trivial as soreness in the back or as severe as to impair your body movements, treatment is a must. Solutions may include bed rest, physical therapy, drugs or surgery. But all of these are symptom-driven and fail to address the root cause of the problem. Instead, the best treatment would be chiropractic care, which is non-invasive but effective. With spinal adjustments and decompression therapy coupled with physiotherapy, back pain can be cured.
