Causes of Mid-Lower Back Pain
Mid-lower back pain can be triggered by various factors, some of which include:
- Poor posture: Slouching or hunching over for extended periods can strain the muscles and ligaments in the lower back.
- Prolonged sitting: Sitting for long hours, especially with poor posture, can lead to muscle fatigue and discomfort.
- Muscle strain: Overuse or sudden, heavy lifting can cause the muscles to stretch or tear.
- Herniated or bulging discs: Discs that press on nearby nerves can cause pain and other symptoms.
- Degenerative conditions: Arthritis or other age-related changes can lead to pain and stiffness in the lower back.
- Injury or trauma: Accidents or sports injuries can damage the spinal structures and contribute to pain.
