Fibromyalgia and Spondylitis
Fibromyalgia, a condition characterized by long-term pain and tenderness in the joints, muscles, and tendons, can manifest as lower back pain. Similarly, spondylitis, an autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in the spine, is another potential cause of lower back discomfort.
According to research published in the International Journal Of Nursing Studies, a multidisciplinary approach combining medication, physical therapy, and lifestyle modifications can effectively manage the lower back pain associated with these conditions. [5]
Unusual Spine Curvatures
Conditions that cause abnormal curvatures in the spine, such as scoliosis, lordosis, and kyphosis, can contribute to lower back pain. These conditions are often present from birth and are typically diagnosed during childhood or adolescence. The unusual curvature exerts pressure on the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and vertebrae, leading to pain and poor posture.
While some individuals with these conditions may not experience symptoms, others may benefit from early intervention and treatment to address the underlying issue and prevent further complications.
