Hello, my dear patients;
Today, I would like to give you information that I think will be useful to you about the causes of low back pain.
Low back pain may arise not only from the waist area, but also from various tissues and organs in the body. We can roughly divide back pain into 3 groups as mechanical, non-mechanical and referred back pain.
Mechanical back pain: It is caused by conditions related to the lumbar region that disrupt the movement function of the waist and cause pain. The most important feature of these pains is that they increase with movement and decrease with rest. Approximately 90% of low back pain is in this group.
Non-mechanical low back pain: It is caused by conditions such as infection, cancer and rheumatic diseases that affect the waist area and disrupt the anatomy of the waist area. The most important difference between these pains and mechanical lower back pains is that, unlike mechanical pains, these pains increase with rest and occur especially at night.
Reflected lower back pain: Although there is no problem in the waist area, it is caused by other internal organs. If examples of these pains are given, kidney stones, ovarian problems and prostate problems can be listed in this group.
Yes, my dear patients, today I will tell you about the causes of lower back pain. I tried to talk about it briefly. When you have lower back pain, pay attention to when this pain occurs, that is, whether it increases with movement or rest. If you experience pain while moving, this means that you have a mechanical character, and your pain will probably go away with short-term rest and medical treatment. However, your pain will be relieved when you are at rest or at night. If it increases, be sure to see a specialist as soon as possible, because there is a high probability that another disease may be underlying this pain.
Yes, my dear patients, I hope I have given you useful information. See you in our next article.
With love
