What is the cause of back pain and what diseases should we pay attention to?

The main location of back pain is the pain in the spine corresponding to the heart. There are many reasons for this symptom, and patients should seek medical attention in time. For example, cervical spondylosis, neck sprain, rheumatism, periarthritis of the shoulder, etc., these diseases will have such symptoms.

1. Back pain caused by cervical spondylosis

How can cervical spondylosis cause back pain when it occurs in the cervical spine? Little do people know that the posterior branches of the spinal nerves of the fourth, fifth and sixth cervical vertebrae extend to the back and control the skin and muscles of the upper back.

When degenerative changes occur in the cervical spine, if the posterior branches of the spinal nerves of the fourth, fifth, and sixth cervical vertebrae are pulled, back pain will occur.

In fact, neck and back pain, upper limb weakness, numbness of fingers, dizziness, nausea, and even blurred vision and difficulty swallowing are all symptoms of cervical spondylosis.

2. Back pain caused by neck sprain and stiff neck

Due to improper neck movement or bad sleeping position, local muscles are sprained and the pain involves the back muscles. The medical history is short, and the tenderness point is fixed and located at the injured muscle.

It is more common in the upper inner part of the scapula and is accompanied by muscle spasm. You can feel the tender cord-like spasmodic muscle bundles, and the movement of the neck and back is obviously limited.

3. Back pain caused by rheumatism

Rheumatism is mostly an autoimmune disease with a hidden and slow onset and a long course. It invades the joints, bones, muscles, blood vessels and related soft tissues, and can cause a certain degree of back pain. The back pain will be aggravated in cool, windy and damp weather.

4. Back pain caused by frozen shoulder

Frozen shoulder can cause shoulder joint pain. As the disease progresses, the pain range will continue to increase, and some patients will experience back pain.
