BACKPAIN

> HOME > ROGA > BACKPAIN

Description:

Back pain can be divided into two basic categories, acute and chronic. Acute pain comes on quickly, either immediately or over a period of several hours. On the other hand, chronic back pain comes on slowly and remains for a very long time, sometimes lasting for months or even years. It may come and go and is never far from one's mind. Often at times, acute and chronic back pain are interrelated, the acute leading to the chronic.

Symptoms Back pain that may or may not radiate to hips and legs.

Special Notes:

Leg length discrepancy is the most common cause of back pain caused by a pelvic twist. Anyone ever having a broken leg must automatically assume a leg length discrepancy. Back pain can also be caused by stress, both mental and physical. Organic problems can also lead to back pain symptoms. Gallstones, kidney stones, infections, uterine fibroid tumors and ovarian cysts can all result in severe back pain because the nerves that go to these organs come from the spine. Lower back pain may also be associated with menstruation.

 
SCIATICA

Description:

Radiating pain from the back, either into the buttock and/or the lower extremity (leg) usually on the back (posterior) and outward (lateral) side. It represents pain referred somewhere along the path of the sciatic nerve (from the buttock, down the leg, into the foot, although the most. Commonly affected areas are the buttock and thighs).

Symptoms:

Discomfort, pain, burning, tingling, stabbing, aching, anywhere along the path of the sciatic nerve. In severe cases, the pain may be associated with weakness.
