Lumbar spine pain may sometimes be due to something other than back-related factors such as abdominal issues or kidney stones; this is known as “referred pain”.
Causes
Lower back injuries are the most prevalent in the lumbar spine area, which contains five movable vertebrae that support weight from upper body.
Back pain occurs when muscles, ligaments, tendons and/or discs become inflamed or compressed due to injury or illness such as sciatica.
