Spinal Pains
Sadly, millions of Australians experience spinal pain at any given time.
The spine is a complicated structure of bones, joints, ligaments and muscles. You can sprain ligaments, strain muscles, rupture discs, and irritate joints, all of which can lead to varying forms of spinal pains.
While sports injuries or accidents can cause spinal pain, sometimes the simplest of movements – for example, picking up a pencil from the floor – can have painful results.
In addition, arthritis, poor posture, obesity, and psychological stress can cause or complicate back pain.
Spinal pains can also directly result from disease of the internal organs, such as kidney stones, kidney infections, blood clots, or bone loss.
So there is much to consider….
