Spinal pain is a type of pain that is different from pain in other parts of the body. Spinal pain can make people feel a clear sense of pressure that radiates from the spine to the surrounding area. Severe spinal pain can also cause difficulty breathing, etc. Therefore, paying attention to spinal health is something people should pay more attention to in their lives. Spinal pain in the back is the most common manifestation. Let’s take a look at what causes spinal pain in the back.

It is usually caused by improper posture, staying in a fixed posture for a long time, and not getting relief for the neck, which will bring about a series of symptoms, back pain being one of them. The cervical vertebra is located at the junction of the head and the upper body and is the beginning of the spine. The internal structure of the cervical vertebra is complex. Once a problem occurs, it will affect the health of the whole body. Cervical disc herniation compressing the nerve roots can cause back pain. Therefore, if persistent back pain occurs, you should seek medical attention immediately to avoid worsening of the condition.

The cause of pain in the spine may be that long-term hunching the back or leaning the body may cause damage to the local soft tissue and produce pain. If cervical or lumbar spine lesions occur, the possibility of spondylitis or ankylosing spondylitis should be considered. The main symptoms of spinal pain include pain in the head, neck, arms, hands and chest, and may have progressive limb sensory and movement disorders. Severe cases may cause limb weakness, even incontinence, paralysis, and involvement of the vertebral artery and sympathetic nerves may lead to dizziness, palpitations and other corresponding clinical manifestations. Corresponding sleep may also be poor and nightmares may occur.

There are many causes of back and spine pain. To relieve the symptoms, traction, massage, physical therapy, and other auxiliary treatments can be used with Chinese medicine to promote symptom relief. In daily life, you should stop doing excessive cervical activities and maintain correct posture. The main cause of spinal pain and cervical spondylosis is incorrect working and studying posture. A good posture can reduce fatigue and avoid injuries. Bowing your head for too long will cause muscle fatigue, aging of the cervical disc, and chronic strain, which will lead to a series of symptoms. The best posture for working at a desk is to keep your neck upright and slightly leaning forward, without twisting or tilting; if the working time exceeds 1 hour, you should rest for a few minutes and do some neck exercises or massage; you should not lean your head on the head of the bed or the armrest of the sofa to read or watch TV. Avoid strain.
