One of the most common reasons patients visit us — from mild strain to disc issues.
What is Back Pain? (पीठ दर्द)
Back pain refers to discomfort anywhere along the spine, from the upper back to the lower back (lumbar region), and can be muscular, joint-related, or linked to a disc problem.
Common Causes
- Poor lifting technique
- Prolonged sitting with poor posture
- Muscle weakness or imbalance
- Disc bulge or degeneration
- Sedentary lifestyle
Symptoms to Watch For
- Dull ache or sharp pain in the lower or upper back
- Stiffness after sitting or standing for long periods
- Pain that worsens with bending or lifting
- Muscle spasm
How We Diagnose It
A detailed movement assessment identifies whether pain is coming from muscles, joints, or a disc — this determines whether chiropractic adjustment, manual therapy, or a structured exercise plan is the priority.
Our Treatment Approach
Depending on severity, treatment for back pain typically draws on:
Expected Recovery Timeline
Simple muscular back pain often improves within 2–3 weeks; disc-related or chronic pain typically requires 6–8 weeks of structured rehabilitation.
Self-Care Tips
- Bend at the knees, not the back, when lifting
- Avoid sitting for more than 45 minutes without standing up
- Strengthen your core with guided exercises
- Use a supportive chair and mattress
These are general self-care suggestions and are not a substitute for a personalised assessment. Please consult us before starting any new exercise if your symptoms are severe.
FAQs
Complete bed rest is usually not recommended beyond a day or two — gentle, guided movement typically speeds recovery more than prolonged rest.
Seek prompt medical attention if back pain is accompanied by numbness in both legs, loss of bladder control, or follows a major fall or accident.
