The Cause of Back Pain Primary Causes and Contributing Influences
The cause of back pain can be broken down into primary causes and contributing influences.
For example, nerve compression is a primary cause, while obesity is or can be a contributing influence.
Sorting out causes and influences can be a complex task, but one issue is very clear:
Cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all diagnoses, prescriptions, and exercise regimes are not the answer. The reason for this is that back pain is very individual, with numerous potential causes.
In my experience, there’s often a central cause but also several contributing influences.
If these contributing influences, in addition to the primary problem, are not sorted out and properly treated, back pain cannot resolve in a lasting way.
Listed below are numerous causes of back pain. Some are primary causes, while others are contributing influences.
