SOUTH MOON Lumbar Spine Cold Spray Gel

Lower back pain affects the lumbar region of your spine or back. It can result from many different injuries and conditions. Most often, the cause is an injury to muscles or tendons in your back.

Nearly everyone experience lower back pain at some point in their lives. The pain can range from mild to severe. For most, it’s temporary. But long-lasting (chronic) lower back pain is also common — up to 23% of adults worldwide have chronic lower back pain. In extreme cases, lower back pain can make it difficult or impossible to walk, sleep, work or do everyday activities.

Causes 0f Lumbar Pains

Lower back pain is very common. It often results from a strain (injury) to muscles or tendons in your back. Other causes include arthritis, structural problems and disk injuries. 

What are the symptoms of lower back pain?

Lower back pain can involve a wide spectrum of symptoms. Lower back pain may:

• Come on suddenly or appear gradually.
• Happen after a specific event, like bending over to pick something up. You may hear a “pop” when it happens.
• Have an unknown trigger.
• Feel sharp or dull and achy.
• Come and go or be persistent.
• Radiate down to your buttock or down the back of your leg (sciatica).
• Feel worse in certain positions (like bending over or crouching down) and get better when lying down.
• Stiffness: It may be tough to move or straighten your back. Getting up from a seated position may take a while, and you might feel like you need to walk or stretch to loosen up. You may notice a decreased range of motion.
• Posture problems: Many people with back pain find it hard to stand up straight. You may stand “crooked” or bent, with your torso off to the side rather than aligned with your spine. Your lower back may look flat instead of curved.
• Muscle spasms: After a strain, muscles in your lower back can spasm or contract uncontrollably. Muscle spasms can cause extreme pain and make it difficult or impossible to stand, walk or move.
