    According to the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, almost 75 to 80 Americans experience back pain at some point in life. This is a common clinical manifestation of several health concerns that can be debilitating. 

    Jersey City back pain management offered by orthopedic doctors can alleviate painful symptoms, and reclaim your life. 

    Introduction to back pain and possible caused 

    Your back is a structure comprising muscles, ligaments, tendons, fascia, bones, joints, nerves, and spinal discs that work together during movements you make. An injury to any component of your back can impact the entire system which leads to pain, fatigue, and loss of range of motion. This impairs your ability to perform your normal routine activities. 

    Back pain can vary in intensity and frequency. It can either be acute (lasting for weeks), subacute (lasting for months) or chronic (long-lasting).

    Frequent causes of back pain include:

    • Strain 

      • Lifting improperly, or something too heavy
      • Making an abrupt awkward movement
    • Poor posture 

      • Prolonged sitting
      • Straining the neck forward
      • Driving for lengthy periods without a break
    • Structural problems 

      • Ruptured discs
      • Sciatica 
      • Osteoporosis
      • Unusual curvature of the spine
    • Certain medical conditions

      • Infection of the spine
      • Cancer of the spine
      • Kidney problems 
      • Sleep disorders
      • Shingles 
      • Myofascial dysfunction
      • Arthritis 
      • Spinal stenosis

    • Pregnancy
    • Unhealthy lifestyle habits like smoking, excess alcohol consumption 
    • History of genetic conditions like osteoporosis, scoliosis
    • Participation in repetitive strenuous activities

    Clinical manifestations of back pain

    Mild back pain can resolve over a period of time. However, seek medical help for the following symptoms:

    • Inflammation or swelling in the back
    • Numbness around the anus, genitals, buttocks
    • Fever 
    • Radiating pain in the legs
    • Urinary incontinence 
    • Fecal incontinence  
    • Weight loss 
    • Sleep disturbances 

    Managing back pain

    Your doctor will design a customized treatment plan for you based on your symptoms, medical history, and results of the diagnostic tests (X-ray, bone scan, MRI, or CT scan). These include:

    Home care 

    • Rest
    • Hot and cold therapy
    • Medications (NSAIDs)
    • Physical therapy to improve muscle strength 
    • Stress-reducing techniques like yoga
