Back Pain Clinic

Pain in the back could be associated with problems related to one or more factors.

Strained muscles and ligaments or a muscle spasm. This strain occurs mostly because of lifting something too heavy, or lifting things in an improper way.
Structural Problems that lead to spine discs getting ruptured, herniated or protruded.
Sciatica, which is a sharp pain that moves down the back through the buttock.
Osteoporosis – spinal vertebrae becomes weak and fragile to the extent that even a minor fall or mild stress leads to fracture.
Arthritis – inflammation of the joints lead to pain in the lower back, knees, hips and shoulders.
Spinal Stenosis – this means narrowing of spaces within spines, leading to increased pressure on the nerves that travel through the spine.
Spinal Tumour – an abnormal growth that occurs in or around the spinal cord or within the discs.
Other general causes may include infection of the spine, sleep disorders, or simply a bad mattress that does not provide correct support to the spine.
