What Causes Low Back Pain?
Low back pain can have many different causes, and the pain itself can be sharp, dull, throbbing, constant, intermittent, chronic, or reoccurring. When you visit us at Smith Chiropractic, we can perform diagnostic testing that can help determine the root cause of your low back pain. One of the most common causes is repetitive stress caused by frequent lifting and moving of heavy things, either at work or at home.
Other common causes of low back pain are sciatica, muscle strain, disc herniation, age or illness related disc degeneration, osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, spinal stenosis, or spondylitis.
When to Visit a Chiropractor for Low Back Pain Treatment
If you have severe, unrelenting low back pain after an auto accident, fall, or other injury, or your back pain is accompanied by bowel or bladder control issues, weakness in your arms or legs, fever, or pain when coughing or urinating, you should visit an urgent care right away. If you have less serious symptoms but they are chronic, reoccurring, and are affecting your ability to work or enjoy life, you should visit one of our chiropractors for low back pain treatment in Colorado Springs, CO.
