So let us first understand some of the most common reasons leading to the back pain:
Posture: Body posture is one of the main reasons behind the back pain. Our spine is affected by our movement. If we stay in incorrect position for a long time such as leaning forward or backward or if we put too much pressure on our spine by lifting heavy objects, we can feel pain in our back. Chances are that almost every individual has experienced such pain. Besides, as we grow older our bones get weaker as we are unable to get enough nutrition and calcium that aid in making our bones stronger. Additionally, lifting heavy objects can also lead to disc bulging or herniation.
Medical: Medical condition such as scoliosis can lead to back pain. Scoliosis is a condition wherein the spine has the abnormal curvature. This condition affects both children and adolescents, and if it is left untreated during the childhood, the pain can be very severe when the child grows up.
