Back pain is a symptom of particular medical issues, rather than a disorder in and of itself. Common causes include: Strains If you overexert yourself, or move too quickly, you might tear the muscles or ligaments in your back. This can lead to pain, stiffness, and muscle spasms in the area.
Sciatica: Sciatica is a painful condition that occurs when a herniated disc presses against your sciatic nerve, which runs from your spine down to your legs. Lower back pain from sciatica can also spread to your legs and feet.
Diseases: Certain diseases can cause pain in your back and lower back, like: Spondylosis, Kidney infection, Arthritis, Fibromyalgia. Pain in the lower back is also sometimes associated with kidney and bladder problems.

Your neck is flexible, has a lot of moving parts, and is responsible for supporting the entire weight of your head. All of these factors make it incredibly vulnerable to injury and strain. Some common causes of neck pain include: Strained muscles
Hunching over your computer or phone Having poor posture Poor sleeping position Jerking your neck during a physical activity Grinding your teeth These factors can easily trigger strains that may lead to neck pain. Worn joints As you age, the joints in your neck wear down, which can cause pain. Osteoarthritis can also lead to neck pain, as it causes the cartilage between your vertebrae to deteriorate, which can cause painful bone spurs. Nerve compression Otherwise known as a “pinched nerve,” this happens when a herniated disk presses up against the nerves that branch out from your spinal cord, causing pain.
Most neck pain improves on its own with rest, or simple home treatments. In some cases, though, neck pain might be indicative of an underlying problem. If your neck pain is severe or is accompanied by headache, weakness, numbness, or tingling, schedule a visit immediately with the team of medical professionals at Atlantic Pain Relief Center.
