Spinal Pain Online Journals

Spinal pain is highly prevalent in the region of the lumbar (lower back) and cervical region (neck), and is often the cause of several lost working days. The most frequent causes of low back pain are lumbar muscle strains and sprains. The thoracic spine may also be a source of spinal pain but the thoracic spinal field is often less often damaged than the lumbar and cervical spine because it is much more stable. Due to its weight-bearing function and engagement in moving, twisting and bending, the lumbar and cervical spine are susceptible to strain. Lumbar sprain is caused by excessively strained ligaments — the tight bands of tissue that bind bones together. Each of these can be caused by sudden injury or by gradual overuse.
