5 Top Causes Of Back Pain

Nina Eghani

Day to day stress such as sitting for long periods, driving and poor posture can lead to ongoing stress throughout your body. The stress is usually silent until it builds up and causes an overload to your body which sometimes can be irreversible. There are many causes of back pain, here are the top causes:

Examples of Uncommon Causes of Back Pain

Spinal infections are a less common cause of back pain. These infections can be bacterial or fungal and can affect the intervertebral discs, spinal bone (osteomyelitis), spinal cord, or area around the nerve roots (epidural space).

Spinal Tumors are benign (not cancer) or malignant (cancer). These abnormal growths (called neoplasms) can be primary or metastatic. A primary spinal tumor is one that originates in the spine—within a vertebral body, nerve roots, or spinal cord. Metastatic tumors are those that have migrated from another part of the body—such as a breast, kidney, or lung.
