Who Gets Back Pain?

Certain factors increase the likelihood of experiencing back pain, making it a widespread issue that can affect anyone. These factors include:

  1. Fitness Level: Individuals with lower physical fitness may be more susceptible to back pain, especially if they have weak back and stomach muscles that fail to adequately support the spine (lack of core strength). Engaging in strenuous exercise after a period of inactivity can also contribute to back pain.


  2. Weight Gain: The combination of a high-calorie, high-fat diet and a sedentary lifestyle can lead to weight gain, placing additional stress on the back and increasing the risk of experiencing back pain.

  3. Job-Related Risk Factors: Occupations involving heavy lifting, pushing, pulling, or twisting movements can pose a risk of back injuries. Even desk jobs may contribute to back pain, particularly if poor posture or prolonged periods of sitting in uncomfortable chairs are involved.


  4. Stress Level: Chronic conditions such as poor sleep, depression, or anxiety can elevate the frequency and severity of back pain.


  5. Age: The likelihood of experiencing back pain tends to increase with age, particularly after reaching the age of 45.


  6. Heredity: Genetic factors play a role in certain disorders that contribute to back pain, highlighting the influence of heredity on this health issue


Causes of Back Pain

Back pain is often multifactorial, with poor posture, insufficient physical activity leading to spinal stiffness and weakened muscles, and muscle strains or sprains contributing to its occurrence. In addition to these factors, specific conditions are associated with back pain. It's crucial to note that the intensity of pain does not necessarily indicate a serious underlying issue.
