Description:

Lumbago is a stabbing back pain that usually affects the lower back (lumbar spine). It is typically caused by muscle tension as a result of a sudden jerking movement or an incorrect strain on the spine. Lumbago pain can range from mild to severe. Some patients have acute pain that goes away with time while others have chronic pain that is difficult to get rid of.It is frequently triggered by twisting or bending over. Studies state that 85% of people will experience lumbago at some point in their lives. It's worth noting that it doesn't usually affect the elderly. It's more common in middle-aged people. Lumbago is typically diagnosed based on its distinctive symptoms. In most cases, an x-ray of the spine is also performed in order to detect possible degenerative spinal diseases.

Cause:

Lumbago is commonly described as a dull aching pain in the lower back. However, the pain can be severe with stabbing burning tingling or shooting sensations. Muscle tension and stiffness are possible additional symptoms. These symptoms may restrict your mobility and make it difficult to lean in certain directions.The pain is localised in the lumbar region of the spine and is accompanied by back muscle tension and hardening. Back movement is severely restricted due to pain and tension. Often, the person is unable to straighten their back. A slipped disc in the spine can irritate the nerve roots, causing pain to radiate down the leg along the sciatic nerve. Sciatica is the medical term for this condition. Sensory problems in the leg can also be caused by a prolapsed disc.

Symptom:

Lower back pain is common after sitting for long periods of time with poor posture. Lumbago can also be characterised by pain that worsens after a sneeze or cough. Pain worsens after engaging in certain activities. This could include heavy lifting or pulling gym exercises or sports-related movements. This is especially common following movements that cause an abnormal or excessive bend in the lumbar spine. Furthermore, certain conditions can aggravate or even cause lower back pain. People who are pregnant or obese for example, are more likely to suffer from lumbago than others. Sedentary people are more likely to experience back pain than those who move throughout the day. Fever severe muscle spasms numbness or weakness in the lower limbs are also warning signs.
