Sacral chordomas, especially, can be present for a prolonged period before symptoms appear. 13 Pain in the low back and sacral region is one of the most common presenting symptoms.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Secondly, we studied the prevalence of the health problems presented to the GPs in the cases and compared it to that presented by their matched patients from the contrast group.[academic.oup.com]
In general, back pain can present at any time during pregnancy, but is most prevalent in the second half and may be described as pain that is aggravated by activity and relieved with rest.[practicalpainmanagement.com]
Some radicular pain can also be classified as sciatic nerve pain, a very common and painful condition. Sciatic Nerve Pain Sciatica is also a very common type of lower back pain.[pennmedicine.org]
In a study involving adolescents with pain, ( Pain. 2012;153[9]:1932-8 ), obese adolescents had a 1.33 odds ratio (OR) of having any kind of pain, a 2.04 OR for chronic regional pain, and a 1.87 OR for knee pain specifically ( P less than .05), compared[mdedge.com]

In a study of chronic pain in the elderly ( Pain. 2011;152[1]:53-9 ), individuals with abdominalobesity had a higher risk for chronic lumbar pain (OR 2.25); upper extremity pain (OR 2.01); and pain in either the hip, knee, or any lower extremity (OR[mdedge.com]
A healthy diet is also important as there is growing evidence that abdominalobesity (fat around your belly) is associated with back pain and can cause inflammation.[painhealth.csse.uwa.edu.au]

Body Mass Index (BMI) was calculated with the formula of weight (kg)/ height (metre) 2 and was classified as underweight (BMI 2 ), normal weight (BMI 18.5–24.9 kg/m 2 ), overweight (BMI 25.0–29.9 kg/m 2 ) and obese (BMI 30.0 kg/m 2 ) [ 23 ].[journals.plos.org]

An Australian study ( Eur J Pain. 2013;17(7):957-71 ) that reviewed low backpain studies in twins found that obesity was an indicator (OR 1.9) and that “both obesity and smoking demonstrated dose-dependant relationships with lower backpain,” said Dr[mdedge.com]

The risk of LowBackPain related to degenerative spine disease increases with aging. How is LowBackPain diagnosed? The diagnosis of lowbackpain begins with a physical exam, usually of the spine and legs.[aanem.org]
Chronic muscular contraction is one of the chief causes of lowbackpain. Postural Distortion - If the body is not balanced and upright in gravity then muscular imbalance can develop causing postural distortion.[lower-back-pain-answers.com]
Low-BackPain Occurrence The prevalence estimates of low-backpain vary depending on the definitions used in different surveys.[iloencyclopaedia.org]
MuscleSpasms Less common than non-specific muscular pain, musclespasms are also a common manifestation of lower back pain. Musclespasms occur when the back muscles involuntarily contract.[pennmedicine.org]
Back pain, back stiffness and back musclespasms are typical symptoms. Treatment depends upon the cause of the pain. Risks The muscles of the back are almost constantly in use, and because of this, tend to get injured often.[ada.com]
Other medicines such as muscle relaxants control musclespasms. These medicines often cause sedation; therefore, consult your doctor to discuss about the type of muscle relaxants for your child. Your doctor may also suggest a rehabilitation program.[rheumatologyspecialistcare.com.au]
Back pain itself is not considered a diagnosis, but rather a symptom of underlying (in most cases musculoskeletal) problems. [2] following: Vertebrae misalignment, which can cause nerve interference (also called subluxation), [3] muscle tension, or muscle[en.wikipedia.org]
The pain can also include musclespasms and cramps. Tendon and ligament pain: Pains in the tendons or ligaments are often caused by injuries, including sprains.[my.clevelandclinic.org]

Most of the time, acutelow-backpain is the result of simple strain and is a self-limiting condition that will resolve in four to six weeks, with or without treatment.[sciencebasedmedicine.org]

Acutelowbackpain is most often caused by a sudden injury to the muscles and ligaments supporting the back. The pain may be caused by muscle spasms or a strain or tear in the muscles and ligaments.[physioworks.com.au]
Such symptoms could be caused by disk herniation, osteophyte formation, or some other pathological process.[sciencebasedmedicine.org]
Bone spurs, sometimes called osteophytes, may also form around the disc space. These bones spurs can also form around the facet joints. This is thought to be due to the body’s response to try to stop the excess motion at the spinal segment.[nynjcmd.com]
Chemicals released from the inside of the disc seem to irritate nerve tissue, causing pain and inflammation of the nerve. Abnormal pressure or irritation on a particular nerve causes several problems.[nynjcmd.com]
If positive, these manuvers suggest the nerve is being irritated by a mechanical cause, usually the verebral bones or herniated disc. The irritative nerves form the sciatic nerve, leading to sciatica.[stanfordmedicine25.stanford.edu]
The Law of Generalization states that: "When the irritation becomes very intense it is propagated in the medulla oblongata (lower half of the brain stem), which becomes the focus from which stimuli radiate to all parts of the (spinal) cord, causing a[lower-back-pain-answers.com]
Examples of triggers that may irritate your spasticity include heat exposure (called the Uthoff phenomenon ), infection, sudden changes in position or movement, tight or irritating clothing, or a full bladder or bowel.[verywellhealth.com]

Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction - Often confused with Sciatica , Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction causes pain due to either hypomobility or hypermobility of one or both sacroiliac joints.[lower-back-pain-answers.com]
As an attempt to resolve the confusion the Quebec Task Force on Spinal Disorders carried out a comprehensive and critical literature review and ended up recommending the use of the classification for low-back pain patients shown in table 3. Table 3.[iloencyclopaedia.org]
We tried to limit the risk of confusion bias by matching our samples according to four variables. Age and gender are known to influence morbidity ( 38 ).[academic.oup.com]
The pain can be sharp, dull, aching or with tingling or burningsensations. Pain can differ from person to person and also may involve radiating pain to the hip or even further down. Certain movements may make the pain better or worse.[ada.com]
You may have a tingling or burningsensation, a dull achy feeling, or sharp pain. Depending on the cause and severity, you also may have weakness in your legs or feet.[austinmassageclinic.com]
The buildup of lactic acid causes a painful burningsensation.[nynjcmd.com]
Sensory-Motor Amnesia - This is a phenomenon whereby we lose sensory-motor control of our muscles allowing them to remain chronically contracted. Chronic muscular contraction is one of the chief causes of low back pain.[lower-back-pain-answers.com]
For example, obtaining a full clinical history, asking certain questions associated with an inflammatory cause of lower back pain, examining the back for signs of deformities, performing neurologic workups and potentially ordering imaging tests if deemed[sciencedaily.com]
Treatment The treatment of lower back pain involves pain relief and gentle movements of the back. Simple pain-relief, such as paracetamol and ibuprofen are often helpful in reducing back pain.[ada.com]
Early diagnosis and treatment could save you from a lifetime of pain and immobility.[pelvipro.com]
Patient education, return to normal activity, and self-care temperature treatments (ice, heat) are the first steps in therapy. Oral pharmacotherapy (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, acetaminophen, and muscle relaxants) is used for pain control.[online.epocrates.com]
