Causes of lower back pain

Lower back pain is a common complaint among adults and can be caused by a variety of factors. One of the most common causes is poor posture, which can put undue stress on the lower back muscles and joints. Other causes include lifting heavy objects improperly, overuse or strain of the back muscles, and spinal conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease. Additionally, certain lifestyle factors such as obesity, smoking, and lack of exercise can contribute to lower back pain. It is important to identify the underlying cause of the pain in order to properly treat it.
