Low Back Pain Causes

There are several different causes of low back pain, but some of the most common are; obesity, arthritis, blood clots and kidney stones. Although these conditions can lead to back pain, none of them are the most common. The number one cause of back pain is subluxation. A subluxation is a misalignment of spinal vertebrae which may lead to nerve and/or disc impingement.

Doctors of chiropractic are specially trained to find misalignments in the spine and remove them. By removing a misalignment, the pressure that is being put on the nerves and/or discs can be removed thus removing the pain. This also restores proper nerve function in the body.

It is very likely that the pain will get worse before it gets better if left untreated. It is very disheartening, but very common, to have new patients come to use after waiting too long to begin treatment. Much like a cavity, a misalignment will cause pain to spread and create additional problems along the way. Your spine protects your spinal cord which is the communicator between your brain and the rest of your body. The brain and spinal cord make up the most valuable system in the entire body, the nervous system.
