When Back Pain Needs More Than Rest: Understanding Spine Disorders

Back pain is one of the most common reasons for medical visits. While many cases resolve with rest and physiotherapy, persistent or worsening pain may signal an underlying spinal condition requiring specialist evaluation. Common Causes of Chronic Back Pain

• Disc prolapse (slipped disc)

• Degenerative spine disease

• Spinal canal stenosis

• Nerve compression

• Spondylolisthesis

• Traumatic or sports-related injuries
  

Red Flags That Should Not Be Ignored

• Pain lasting more than 6 weeks

• Pain radiating to legs or arms

• Numbness, tingling, or weakness

• Difficulty walking

• Loss of bladder or bowel control
  

Modern Spine Care Approaches

Not all spine conditions require surgery. Treatment options include:

• Targeted physiotherapy

• Pain management interventions

• Image-guided injections

• Minimally invasive spine surgery when indicated
