Back pain and what it means
According to a recent survey four out of every five people experience back pain in their life, at some time or other. Quite often back pain is as a result of something as simple as, bending down to pick something up, lifting an object heavier than expected or carrying it too far, etc. Most times rest and warmth assist however, if the pain continues it is advisable to determine the effects.
The differentiation between bone or skeletal and muscle back pain is generally, bone pain feels sharper deeper and more debilitating than muscle pain. Three symptoms of muscle strain include sudden muscle pain, often from a certain movement or injury, muscle spasm, muscle that is sore to touch, pain that may ease with rest, muscle weakness.
For those who experience back pain at night or whilst at rest may indicate a different health situation. Examples such as infection, cancer and a disorder known as Cauda Equina syndrome may all cause back discomfort as can the compression of nerve roots that result in the loss of both of sensation and mobility.
