Treats back and spine pain

Back pain often occurs after sudden movement or heavy lifting. If you have persistent pain in your back, it's a symptom of a disease. The causes of back pain are diagnosed and treated by a neurologist. Discomfort was successfully treated with conservative methods.

What you need to know about back pain

Back pain is also known as back pain. It plagues everyone periodically. Most commonly, the pain is localized in the lower back area. Often, it occurs in the context of existing changes in the spine. Depending on the type of disease, the pain may be temporary or permanent. Persistent pain is a sign of a serious illness that, if left untreated, may lead to spinal surgery.

When to see a doctor

Do not put off seeing a neurologist if you observe the following symptoms:

• Acute back pain does not go away within 2-3 days;
• Chronic pain that lasts for more than a week without improvement;
• Pain that occurs suddenly and for no apparent reason;
• Pain often occurs after an injury;
• Back pain radiates to legs, knees, feet.

If the pain is accompanied by the following other symptoms, seek immediate emergency medical attention:

• temperature rise;
• Limited movement of arms or legs;
• A feeling of numbness in the extremities;
• drastic changes in blood pressure;
• Painkillers do not help relieve pain;
• Loss of consciousness occurs;
• Problems with internal organ function;
• There are signs of poisoning;
• Bleeding begins.

But even if you don’t have these symptoms, you shouldn’t delay contacting a specialist—some back problems can only be fully cured in their early stages. Your efficiency directly determines the quality of your treatment.Risk factors include:

• Computer or driving related work, strenuous physical activity, stress;
• Perform intensive training in the gym without the supervision of a trainer;
• working in forced postures while sitting or standing;
• overweight.

Why does my back hurt?

There are many causes of back pain. They are caused by the following diseases:

• Osteochondrosis, spondylosis, spondyloarthropathies;
• scoliosis, kyphoscoliosis;
• Herniated or herniated disc;
• Radiculitis or low back pain, inflammation of the sciatic nerve;
• spinal stenosis;
• spinal instability and fractures;
• intercostal neuralgia;
• Overexertion, hypothermia, or bruised back muscles;
• Spinal ligament damage;
• Myositis.

Pregnancy and back pain

Another common factor that affects the development of back pain is pregnancy. As the abdomen increases and the lumbar curve increases, the load on the spine increases. The discs begin to wear out rapidly, and sometimes nerves become pinched. If you don't overexert yourself during pregnancy, you can prevent back pain and the conditions that cause it. If necessary, you should wear supportive restraints and follow other doctor's recommendations.Even if there is no back pain during pregnancy itself, severe stress is placed on the spine and injuries may occur during labor that cause pain.

How to identify disease by pain type

Different diseases can cause different types of back pain. It can be acute, chronic, painful, stinging, with or without conduction (radiation).

pain type	What disease causes it?
It is acute both when conducted (radiated) and non-conducted (radiated).	Osteochondrosis. Persistent pain in the back that sometimes radiates into the legs and worsens when lifting heavy objects, coughing, or sneezing. Back pain can last for minutes, hours, or days.
	Intervertebral hernia. Pain occurs when lifting heavy objects, bending, and turning to one side. Then pain and weakness develop in one of the legs. Back pain when moving, coughing, or sneezing.
	Radiculitis. The pain is sharp or dull. Usually on one side, radiating to the calf, buttocks, thighs, and calves. This sensation intensifies with changes in body position and may be accompanied by numbness, tingling, burning, itching, or a "pins and needles" sensation.
chronic and acute pain	Muscle strain, myositis, working in an uncomfortable position for a long time, lifting heavy objects, sudden movements, hypothermia.
	Low back pain. It affects people who do strenuous physical labor. Severe back pain usually stops after a few days but may last two to three weeks.
	Intervertebral disc displacement. It is caused by osteochondrosis, heavy lifting, heavy physical labor, etc.
chronic	Spondylosis. The soreness may be accompanied by numbness and weakness in the legs. Cervical spondylosis can cause pain in the back of the head, shoulders, and when turning the head.
pain	Inflammation of the muscles of the back and lumbar spine. The disease occurs after hypothermia or muscle strain. The pain is not severe and lasts a long time. The muscles in the affected area are dense and painful when tense.
Conducted (radiating) pain in the legs	Inflammation of the sciatic nerve. Lumbar hernia. Back pain in the lumbar and sacral areas. Pain in the buttocks, back of the thigh, calf, or foot.

diagnosis method

The clinic's experts will use the following diagnostic methods to accurately determine the cause of back pain:

• MRI. Magnetic resonance imaging
• Ultrasound examination (ultrasound)
• Electrocardiogram (ECG)
• laboratory research

Ways to Treat Back Pain

Doctors in modern clinics use many non-surgical methods: from gentle massage techniques and osteopathy to laser and physical therapy. To ensure that treatment is as effective as possible, we provide each patient with an individual treatment plan, using medications to relieve pain only at the beginning of the session.

• Resonant Wave Ultra High Frequency Therapy
• Rehabilitation training on the Thera-Band machine
• joints and spine blocks
• medical treatement
• shockwave therapy

diagnosis method

Experts will use the following diagnostic methods to accurately determine the cause of back pain:First, a basic investigation is conducted on the patient to determine the specific circumstances before the pain occurred, the nature of the pain, etc. Next, the patient is visually inspected and the spine is physically palpated. If the pain increases when the spine is compressed, it can eliminate diseases of the internal organs. If necessary, the patient may be referred to a cardiologist, gynecologist, orthopedic surgeon, or other specialist.

You will regain your freedom of movement and you will feel a surge of energy.As part of rehabilitation, clinical experts develop a personal physical activity plan for each patient, performing independent exercises designed to consolidate treatment gains and prevent disease.

What to do if you have low back pain

If you have severe back pain, our doctors recommend the following:

• Lie down in a comfortable position where you feel the least pain and stop straining your muscles. Stay in this position for at least 20 minutes until the pain subsides.
• Do not sit forward, carry heavy objects, or engage in exercise until the pain subsides.
• Contact your doctor immediately.

Remember, if you havespinal pain, treatmentCannot be postponed. The situation risks seriously deteriorating.If the pain becomes unbearable and you need to wait for a doctor or ambulance to arrive, do the following:

• Lie in bed and minimize movement to ensure maximum calm. Peace is your best friend.
• Place a soft pillow under your back to relieve pressure on your spine.
• If you have a suitable mild pain reliever, you can take pills to reduce pain, but it's best not to do this. See the next paragraph for why.
• It is recommended not to consume any food or drink other than plain water as this may cause disruption if emergency surgery is required (many surgeries can only be performed on an empty stomach). It is also recommended not to give any medication or heat the problem area as this will distort the clinical picture and prevent you from correctly diagnosing the problem and thus prescribing the correct treatment plan.
• Cold compresses are allowed to be applied to painful areas, even if the cause of the pain is unknown, and will not aggravate any common medical condition.
