Back Pain

Back pain is a widespread musculoskeletal condition affecting posture, mobility, and quality of life, commonly caused by muscle strains, poor posture, herniated discs, or spinal issues like sciatica. Symptoms include dull aches, sharp pains, stiffness, and radiating discomfort to the legs. Diagnosis often involves physical exams, X-rays, MRI, or CT scans to assess spinal alignment and nerve involvement. Treatment encompasses rest, physical therapy, pain medications, and exercises to strengthen core muscles. Orthotics are valuable for back pain relief, as they correct foot imbalances like overpronation, improving overall posture and reducing spinal stress for long-term recovery and prevention.
