Understanding Back Pain:

Back pain can originate from various sources, with two common culprits being:

• Sciatica: This condition results from irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve, causing pain that radiates from the lower back, buttocks, and down one leg.
• Mechanical Back Pain: This type of pain arises from muscle strain, ligament sprain, or irritation of spinal joints due to poor posture, overuse, or sudden movements.

Symptoms of Back Pain:

While the specific location of pain can vary, here are some common symptoms of back pain:

• Aching or sharp pain in the lower back or buttocks
• Pain radiating down one leg (sciatica)
• Muscle stiffness and tightness
• Difficulty bending, twisting, or standing for extended periods
• Weakness or numbness in the legs (sciatica)

Benefits of Physiotherapy for Back Pain:

Physiotherapy offers a non-invasive and effective approach to managing back pain without resorting to medication or surgery. Here are some key benefits:

• Pain Relief: Techniques like manual therapy, modalities, and specific exercises can help reduce pain and inflammation.
• Improved Mobility: Stretching and strengthening exercises enhance flexibility and range of motion in the spine.
• Posture Correction: Physiotherapists can identify and address postural imbalances that contribute to back pain.
• Strengthening Core Muscles: A strong core provides better support for the spine, improving stability and preventing future injuries.
• Reduced Reliance on Medication: Physiotherapy can help manage pain, potentially reducing the need for pain medication.
