Backache

Low back pain can manifest in different ways. Therefore, experts distinguish 4 main types of pain:

1. Acute (lower back pain)-pain in the lumbar spine caused by degenerative changes or previous spinal injury. In other words, this disease is called "back pain". The pathology is characterized by severe discomfort in the area, which is exacerbated by any physical activity (sports activities, weightlifting, long-distance brisk walking, etc. ). Pulsating or shooting pain in the waist usually radiates to surrounding organs and tissues.
2. Subacute or chronic (lower back pain)-can be caused by lumbar osteochondrosis, scoliosis, dystrophic changes in the vertebrae and intervertebral discs. Low back pain is characterized by back pain (most commonly on one side), which can be aggravated by bending, sitting for a long time, or standing. As a result, the patient is forced to be in a supine or bent position.
3. Leg radiation (lumbar pain)-Pain, fever, or chills in the lower back and left or right leg. In this case, the pain will spread to the buttocks area and increase with changes in body position.
4. Severe neuropathy (radiculopathy or lumbosacral radiculitis) is the compression or injury of the nerve root, which is characterized by an acute tingling in the spine, continuous tension in the back muscles, discomfort in the back of the thigh, tingling, and limbsScorching and numbness.

But for successful treatment, it is necessary to understand the causes of the occurrence and development of pain. The experts working in our center will make a diagnosis easily and painlessly, and then they will prescribe an appropriate treatment plan for you.

notes! If you find yourself in the above-mentioned type of pain, please don't delay visiting a doctor-a chiropractor, neurologist or chiropractor. Otherwise, your condition may worsen and cause various complications.

Cause of pain

There are many reasons for low back pain, from inflammation of muscles and bone marrow to diseases of internal organs. The following are the main causes of low back pain:

Degenerative malnutrition process

The process of degenerative malnutrition can lead to the following pathologies:

• Osteochondrosis of the spine-Degenerative changes occur when there are cracks in the intervertebral discs, and hernias in the area.
• Poor posture (including in the context of scoliosis)-If not treated in time, it can cause frequent back pain.
• Excessive tension in the waist muscles or severe hypothermia-the pain is essentially stretching and restraint (a person cannot straighten the back for a long time).
• Spondylolisthesis-This disease involves displacement of the lumbar spine.

Inflammatory process

The inflammatory process can also cause waist discomfort:

• Muscle inflammation (myositis)-occurs in various bacterial and viral infections.
• Ankylosing Spondylitis-This disease involves inflammation of the intervertebral and costal joints, as well as the spinal ligaments. As a result, the spine loses its previous mobility and elasticity, so it is easily injured by falls and impacts.
• Spinal osteomyelitis-This disease means inflammation of the bone marrow, which is caused by pathogens (Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, etc. ).
• Tuberculous spondylitis is a chronic inflammation of the spine caused by tuberculosis pathogens. Bacteria enter the blood of the whole body, and then enter the bone tissue.

In addition, the inflammatory process includes infectious neurological diseases (including meningitis).

Diseases of internal organs and pelvic organs

Low back pain can be caused by visceral diseases, such as:

• Peptic ulcer and duodenal ulcer.
• Pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas caused by damage to the organ by its own enzymes).
• Cholecystitis (inflammation of the gallbladder wall).
• Urolithiasis.
• Pelvic organ disease is not only a typical disease of women, but also a typical disease of men (pathology of the uterus, prostate, etc. ).

important! Other causes of lower back pain include osteoporosis (damage of all bones of the bone), congenital spinal abnormalities, neurosis, spinal cord tumors, etc.

Diagnosis of low back pain

For back pain, the following types of diagnosis are prescribed:

• Magnetic resonance imaging of the lumbar spine.
• CT (X-ray computerized tomography).
• Blood and urine tests.
• Ultrasound examination of kidneys, pelvic organs and prostate (male).

Our center is equipped with all necessary diagnostic research equipment (MRI, ultrasound, etc. ), as well as a modern sports treatment room, where you can maintain your health after treatment.

Manual pain management

Manual therapy is a method of treating, diagnosing and preventing diseases of the musculoskeletal system with the help of hands. This is the oldest treatment method, officially recognized by domestic and foreign medicine.

The therapeutic effect of manual therapy is immediate. After the first treatment, the patient's condition improved significantly. During the treatment period, the following effects were observed:

• Reduce and completely eliminate pain in the future.
• Restore blood circulation.
• Relieve muscle tension and clamps.
• Eliminates symptoms of impaired sensitivity (numbness, burning, "goose bumps", tingling of lower limbs).
• Improve internal organs work.

In this case, the vertebrae will gently and painlessly "rise" to the previous position (ie, eliminate the previous displacement).

In our clinic, experienced, well-trained experts who understand biomechanics and human anatomy are engaged in manual therapy. The duration of the course is determined individually and depends on the severity and type of illness. Practice shows that usually 5-10 procedures are required, but sometimes more. After treatment, our modern sports treatment room will serve you, where you can not only improve your health, but also prevent possible recurrence of the disease.

Low back pain is the result of a variety of factors, including osteochondrosis, osteomyelitis, ankylosing spondylitis and other serious diseases. Therefore, do not delay diagnosis and treatment. The sooner you see a doctor, the better your chances of recovery. Our attentive doctors will always help you.
