What Is Low Back Pain?

Low back pain is a common condition that affects the lower part of the spine, typically between the ribs and hips. It can result from muscle strain, poor posture, injury, or underlying conditions such as herniated discs or arthritis. The pain may range from a dull ache to sharp discomfort and can sometimes radiate to the legs. It may be acute (short-term) or chronic (long-lasting). Daily activities like lifting, sitting for long periods, or sudden movements can worsen it. Proper diagnosis and treatment, including physiotherapy, exercise, and lifestyle changes, are essential for effective relief and long-term prevention of recurring pain.
