What is Back Pain?
Back pain is a common symptom that could manifest along with the delicate tissues of the backbone, such as the muscles, nerves, bones, and joints. Internal structures such as glands, pancreas, and the aorta, may cause referred pain in the back.
It can be divided into non-radicular pain and radiculopathy:
Radiculopathy occurs when there is irritation in the nerve root, causing neurologic symptoms, such as numbness and tingling. Disk herniation and foraminal stenosis are the most common causes of radiculopathy.
Non-radicular pain is most commonly caused by injury to the spinal muscles or ligaments, degenerative spinal disease, or a herniated disk.
Back pain can also be due to referred pain from another source. Referred pain occurs when pain is felt at a location different from the source of the pain.
