Take Control of Your Back Pain

Back pain is difficult to diagnose.

Statistics show that 85% of low back pain problems are considered nonspecific, meaning no medical cause can be identified. Back pain can be a frustrating and debilitating condition, affecting millions of people worldwide. 

We understand the complexities of back pain and its impact on your daily life. Our team of experts is dedicated to helping you gain a deeper understanding of the underlying causes of back pain, allowing you to make informed decisions about your health.

Reasons Why Back Pain Is Often Misdiagnosed

  • The spine is a complex structure.

    The spine is made up of 24 bones called vertebrae. These bones are stacked on top of each other and are connected by ligaments and muscles. The spine is also home to the spinal cord, which is a bundle of nerves that runs from the brain to the rest of the body. Any problem with any of these structures can cause back pain.

  • The symptoms of back pain can be vague.

    The symptoms of back pain can vary widely, from mild discomfort to severe pain that makes it difficult to move. The pain can be sharp or dull, and it can be felt in one or both sides of the back. It can also radiate to the arms or legs. The pain can be worse with certain activities, such as bending, lifting, or twisting.

  • There is no single test for back pain.

    There is no single test that can definitively diagnose back pain. Doctors typically diagnose back pain based on a physical examination, medical history, and imaging tests, such as X-rays, MRIs, or CT scans. However, these tests can only show structural abnormalities in the spine, and they cannot always identify the cause of the pain.

FAQ

  • What is the difference between acute and chronic back pain?

    Acute back pain is a sudden and intense pain that usually lasts for a few days to a few weeks. It can be caused by an injury, strain, or sprain to the back muscles or ligaments.

    Chronic back pain, on the other hand, is pain that lasts for more than three months. It can be caused by an underlying medical condition, such as arthritis or a herniated disc, or it can be the result of long-term wear and tear on the spine. Chronic back pain can be more difficult to treat than acute back pain and may require a more comprehensive treatment plan.

  • What are some common treatments for back pain?

    The treatment for back pain will depend on the cause. Some common treatments include:
    - Physical therapy
    - Medications, such as pain relievers, anti-inflammatories, or muscle relaxants
    - Hot or cold therapy
    - Surgery (in rare cases)

  • What are potential red flags for back pain?

    You should see a doctor if your back pain is severe or does not improve with home treatment. You should also see a doctor if you have any of the following symptoms:
    - Numbness or tingling in your legs
    - Weakness in your legs
    - Trouble walking
    - Loss of bladder or bowel control
