If you have spine pain or tingling, burning, aches and pains or sharp pains in your spine or especially in your neck or lower back, I’ll discuss the two main causes.

The first cause of your spinal pain may be due to strains or other types of injuries to your ligaments and muscles, especially in the neck and back.

Participating in various

They’re often the result of injuries from participating in various sports. Or if you’ve stepped up your physical activity in any way that’s unusual. Moving, starting an exercise or fitness program, increasing activity at your health club, etc. Pain in the muscles or a group of muscles is called myalgia. So the first cause could be muscular pain

Your spine is made up of bones, called Wirbelkanalstenose vertebrae; they are joined together by discs, called intervertebral discs along with joints and ligaments. When the spine is working properly it is strong and flexible. The spinal cord is located inside the spine

When you reach middle age then the lifelong wear and tear on the discs and the joints of your spine can be the cause of your spinal or spine pain. These are called degenerative spine changes. These changes are caused by movement so it will affect the neck and the lower parts of the back more so.

The neck region is called he cervical  spine and the lower back is referred to as the lumbar spine. Surgery to remove a ruptured disc is called a laminectomy and is usually a last resort.

The thoracic spine lies between these two but has the support of the rib cage so it doesn’t move the way the thoracic and cervical spine do. So the areas of the spine above and below the rib cage are the areas most commonly affected. More people complain about neck pain and back pain then you hear about mid-back pain.

When the spine is injured the body’s automatic healing mode goes into action. It has a difficult time with the joints of the spine the changes in shape due to herniated, ruptured or bulging discs, ligaments bending and the formation of bone spurs.

There may also be involvement in the part of the nerves that run through the spinal channels and canals – nerve compression; they get compressed by any of the new uneven surfaces that have been created by the above mentioned changes in the spine and spinal cord. This is commonly called pinched nerves. This can result in nerve pain or chronic neck pain.

If you’re having neck pain, back pain or spine pain you may think it was caused by a particular episode such as an accident at work, or just working around your house or yard. It’s important to note that when you experience sharp pain or a new pain that the movement or sudden movement actually just revealed an existing and underlying condition or a degenerative problem that was already present in your spine.

Avoid this spine

There may not be any way to avoid this spine pain other than avoiding sudden movements. Repetitive action over and over may speed up the degenerative process in the lumbar spine.

In any case you want to protect your spine as much as possible. Avoid sudden jerky movements if at all possible. Watch your posture. Do posture exercises to help your spine maintain its proper positioning. Sometimes posture exercises can help relieve pain due to the strengthening of the muscles that support the spinal column. Do these every day.

Practice posture exercises when you’re sitting in a chair or walking. Back surgery can often be avoided by strengthening the muscles in the spine with exercise.

I’ve covered two of the main causes of spine pain. There are a lot of natural treatments to help you stop or get rid of your spine pain or help you get relief or control it. You can do something about your pain – you don’t have to suffer.
