A large portion of the American population experiences mild to severe back pain over their lifetime.

This pain would not only end at the lower back but may spread itself over to the larger part of the spine and down to the buttocks and legs.

The most typical cause of lower back pain is work-associated.
This often goes a long way with the compensation of the worker since the efficiency of works may be impeded.

Lower back pain is more often focused on the lumbar section of the spine and appears in two forms: acute and chronic.
The acute form of pain occurs more quickly and is more intense as compared with the chronic pain.
It lasts for several hours and is often associated with improper body postures and stances and too much physical exertion.
The chronic pain on the other hand often appears in a series of attacks with varying level of pain and severity.
There is no telling what would trigger the attack and it shows no indications of ceasing.
Often, the cause of lower back pain is impairment on the lumbar section of the spine.
This portion carries most of the body weight; therefore as the framework of the back, the lumbar needs to be a lot more stable and healthier.
