Lumbar Back Pain Causes

Lumbar Back Pain Causes


The lumbar region, or lower back, is integral to daily movements like twisting and turning, lifting, bending, and more. It’s no wonder then that this area also experiences more wear and tear than other parts of the back, often leading to pain and soreness. Lumbar back pain causes are varied, but most cases result from muscle strain, which usually heals on its own with time.

Some other common but more serious causes include:

  • Bulging disc
  • Herniated disc
  • Pinched nerve
  • Bone spurs
  • Degenerative disc
  • Spinal stenosis

If you’re suffering from lumbar back pain that causes you to have a decreased quality of life, and your doctor has recommended surgery as your last resort for relief, then call or e-mail Laser Spine Institute today. Laser Spine Institute offers a number of alternative procedures to traditional open back and neck surgeries that are proven to be successful at treating a variety of spinal conditions and don’t require general anesthesia, a long stay in the hospital, or a lengthy recovery. But, don’t take their word for it: more than 87% of Laser Spine Institute’s patients have said their quality of life increased following the surgery.

For more information on Laser Spine Institute and its minimally invasive procedures, contact them today. Laser Spine Institute will be happy to review your MRI or CT scan free of charge and let you know if you’re a candidate for one of its procedures.
