What Causes Back Pain?
The back is a complicated network of bones, muscles, nerves, discs, tendons, and ligaments, and problems with any element can lead to back pain. Issues can begin due to an injury, poor posture, or even a degenerative condition such as osteoarthritis, a herniated disc, or degenerative disc disease. Back pain is common for athletes as well as those who work in jobs that involve standing/sitting for several hours or frequently lifting heavy objects.
