Q & A

What is back pain?

Back pain is an uncomfortable feeling in your upper, mid, or lower back, often caused by a disease, injury, or age-related wear. Greenlight Chiropractic & Wellness Lab offers chiropractic back pain treatment to help you avoid invasive procedures or addictive pain medicine.

What does back pain feel like?

If you have upper, mid, or lower back pain, you may notice the following signs or symptoms:

Stiffness
Swelling
Limited range of motion
Dull ache
Radiating pain
Sharp discomfort
Shooting pain
Tingling
Numbness
Muscle aches
Weakness
Muscle tightness or spasms

Back pain could be mild and go away with rest and home care, or severe and need medical intervention to be ameliorated entirely. See the Greenlight Chiropractic & Wellness Lab team at the first sign of a problem.

What are the risk factors for back pain?

Back pain is common, and anyone can develop it. However, certain factors can increase your risk of experiencing it, including:

Older age
Lack of exercise
Arthritis
Pinched nerves
Physically demanding job
Heavy lifting
Excess body weight
Smoking
Depression
Anxiety
Poor posture
Scoliosis (curvature of the spine)
Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
Osteoporosis
Fractures
Muscle or ligament strains
Ruptured or bulging discs

Getting regular exercise, using proper techniques when lifting heavy objects, maintaining a healthy body weight, and not smoking help reduce your risk of developing back pain.

How does my doctor diagnose the cause of back pain?

To find out what’s causing back pain and treat it properly, the Greenlight Chiropractic & Wellness Lab team reviews your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle habits. They check your vital signs, complete a physical exam, and may order blood tests, bone scans, nerve testing, X-rays, an MRI, a CT scan, or another imaging procedure.
