Back Pain

Anyone suffering from ongoing back pain understands just how much the pain can limit your daily activities. Simple movements like standing, sitting, and walking can become too painful to tolerate. Aside from invasive surgery and possibly dangerous prescription medications, many patients find limited treatment options for back pain. Fortunately, our team at Arc of Life Chiropractic in Ottawa offers holistic care and non-invasive treatment options.

What Causes Back Pain?

Back pain can come from a condition, disease, or injury. Usually, an injury causes acute pain that can be directly related to a measurable incident or accident. Back pain can be connected to a soft tissue injury, such as a sprain or a strain, or damage to the skeletal system, as is the case with a fracture. Sometimes back pain, specifically lower back pain, can be a result of poor posture. Standing and sitting incorrectly for hours on end can lead to nagging aches and pains. Furthermore, back pain can be associated with a disease or a condition. Arthritis, sciatica, spinal stenosis, and osteoporosis have all been known to cause upper and lower back pain.

Back Pain Symptoms

The pain associated with a back injury or condition can vary from a dull ache to a sharp and stabbing pain. Patients will often notice their range of motion is limited, and the injury site may feel sore and stiff. Sometimes back pain is associated with numbness and tingling in the back, neck, or extremities. This numbing sensation is often the case with disc injuries and conditions. People will feel clumsy or will report that they are tripping more frequently.
