Low Back Pain

Low back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal conditions affecting people of all ages. It can result from poor posture, muscle strain, degenerative spinal changes, herniated discs, or underlying medical conditions. Low back pain may be acute (short-term) or chronic (long-term) and can significantly impact mobility, work performance, and quality of life.

At our center, we offer a comprehensive and evidence-based approach to diagnosing and treating low back pain. Our goal is to relieve pain, restore mobility, and prevent recurrence through a combination of medical, interventional, and rehabilitative therapies.

Our Approach

Effective management of low back pain begins with identifying its cause and addressing both the symptoms and underlying contributing factors. Our approach includes:

• Detailed clinical assessment and imaging (X-ray, MRI, or CT scan if required)

• Personalized treatment plans based on pain type and severity

• Integration of medical, physiotherapy, and lifestyle interventions

• Focus on long-term recovery and prevention of recurrence

Common Causes of Low Back Pain

• Muscle or ligament strain due to improper lifting or overuse

• Herniated or bulging intervertebral discs

• Degenerative disc disease and osteoarthritis

• Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)

• Poor posture or sedentary lifestyle

• Trauma or sports injuries

• Inflammatory or infectious spinal conditions (e.g., spondylitis, Pott’s spine)

Symptoms We Manage

• Dull, aching, or sharp pain in the lower back

• Pain radiating to the buttocks, thighs, or legs (sciatica)

• Muscle stiffness and restricted movement

• Tingling, numbness, or weakness in the lower limbs

• Difficulty standing, walking, or performing daily activities

Treatment Options

Medical Management

• Pain relief medications and anti-inflammatories

• Muscle relaxants for acute spasms

• Nerve pain medications for radiating pain (sciatica)

• Epidural or facet joint injections for targeted pain relief in chronic cases

Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation

• Posture correction and ergonomic training

• Strengthening exercises for core and back muscles

• Stretching and flexibility programs

• Manual therapy and spinal mobilization

• Hydrotherapy and electrotherapy for pain reduction

Interventional and Advanced Therapies

• Image-guided injections (nerve blocks, epidural steroid injections)

• Radiofrequency ablation for chronic pain relief

• Minimally invasive spine procedures for selected cases

Lifestyle and Preventive Care

• Weight management and fitness guidance

• Workplace ergonomics and body mechanics training

• Education on injury prevention and spine care

• Yoga and relaxation exercises for stress-related back pain
