Low Back Pain

Classic sources of lower back pain include:

  • The large nerve roots in the lower back that go to the legs may feel irritated

  • The smaller nerves in the lower back may be irritated

  • The large paired lower back muscles known as erector spinae may be strained

  • The bones, ligaments, or joints could be damaged

  • An intervertebral disc may be degenerating

Irritations or problems that are associated with any of these structures could cause lower back pain or possibly pain that radiates or is referred to other parts of the body. Many lower back issues can also cause back muscle spasms, which can cause severe pain and disability.
