Acute lower back pain comes on suddenly, often after a movement you're not used of doing, lifting heavy objects or an accident.The muscle pain and stiffness will stick around for a few days, but will often disappear after simple home remedies, such as a day's rest and using effective pain relief. If the distress lasts longer than three days, it's time to see your chiropractor.
Selecting the exact cause is difficult and 85 percent of lower back episodes go undiagnosed. That's because the structure of the spine is very complex. Its strength and flexibility are thanks to a complex pattern of interconnecting muscles, ligaments and tendons, bones and shock-absorbing discs surrounding the delicate spinal cord and the spray of nerves that flow off the end of it, like the tail of a horse.
