Low back pain that does not last for a long time can sometimes be simply considered as muscle tension.
Medianews.az reports that specialists say these pains are serious warnings given by the body.
Among the most common causes are prolonged sitting at a desk, inactivity, and lumbar herniated discs that occur due to displacement between the vertebrae. This condition can cause pressure on the nerves resulting in pain extending to the legs.
One of the less known but attention-requiring diseases is ankylosing spondylitis. It particularly begins at a young age and is accompanied by increasing back pain and stiffness in the mornings, and if untreated, it can cause permanent damage to the spine.
In some cases, the cause of back pain may be in internal organs, for example, kidney stones or kidney infections lead to persistent pain in the sides of the back.
Especially pains that last for a long time, spread to the legs, accompanied by numbness and tingling, pains causing waking up at night, sudden weight loss, fever, or urinary problems must definitely be taken seriously.
