Low back pain
Low back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal complaints affecting people of all ages. It may range from a dull, constant ache to sudden sharp sensations, often limiting movement and daily activities. Whether acute or chronic, low back pain significantly impacts quality of life and work productivity.
Causes
Low back pain can result from a wide range of physical, lifestyle, and underlying health factors, including:
- Poor posture and prolonged sitting
- Muscular strain or ligament injuries
- Herniated discs or spinal degeneration
- Sedentary lifestyle or lack of exercise
- Obesity and improper lifting techniques
- Emotional stress and tension
- Age-related wear and tear (osteoarthritis, spondylosis)
Ayurvedic Perspective
In Ayurveda, low back pain is primarily associated with Vata imbalance, especially in the Kati Pradesha(lumbar region). It is often classified under:
- Kati Shoola – Pain localized to the lower back
- Gridhrasi (Sciatica) – Radiating pain due to nerve involvement
- Vata Vyadhi – General neuromuscular disorders caused by aggravated Vata
