Acute Lower Back Pain

Almost everyone has experienced acute lower back pain at some point resulting from injury to muscles, ligaments, joints, or discs. This type of pain typically comes on suddenly and lasts for a few days or weeks. It can encompass various symptoms, from merely annoying to severe and debilitating. The body reacts to these injuries by triggering an inflammatory healing response and it is this inflammation that causes severe pain. The manual therapies and adjustments commonly used in chiropractic care are generally effective and should be incorporated early into any care plan. Spinal manipulation and chiropractic mobilization are two manual therapies used. The goal is to improve functionality, reduce nerve irritability, and restore range of motion in the back.
