Symptom
Acute immobilising lower back pain
Common Causes
-
Can be set-off by almost any bending movement such as picking up a dropped
pen, turning to reach something, or the jolt from missing a step.
-
The root cause is typically an underlying disc instability which is
inadvertently triggered by an unexpected event.
-
Pain and lack of mobility is caused by muscle spasm which are part of your
body's defence mechanism.
Treatments
-
An ice-pack may help at the acute stage.
-
Anti-inflammatory drugs and pain-killers will probably be prescribed by your
GP.
-
Once the spasm begins to ease, osteopathic massage and manipulation will
typically be very helpful in restoring mobility and reducing pain more quickly
than the bed-rest often recommended by GPs.
-
The exercise programmes your Chiropractor recommends are important to ensuring
that the underlying instability which caused the problem is addressed and the
injury does not recur.
