Back Pain

Back Pain

Back pain is pain felt in the back. As the pain travels down the spine, it is classified as either cervical (neck pain), thoracic (chest pain), lumbar (back pain), or sacral (tailbone) pain. [1] Because it bears so much of the upper body’s weight, the lumbar region is a frequent source of discomfort. It hurts, and it could be a dull ache, a sharp pain, or even a burning sensation. Discomfort, such as tingling, numbness, or weakness, can spread to the arms and hands in addition to the legs and feet.
