CAUSES OF SUDDEN BACK PAIN
Sudden back pain can be caused by a number of things, but determining what is causing it can be tricky. There could be number of causes, let us see some of them.
1) You may be stressed out- Mental and emotional distress can manifest itself on a psychological level. If you've been feeling run down or uptight over a long period of time, muscle tension can lead to aches and spasms.
Stress-triggered back pain crops up in the neck and shoulder region, as well as the lower back.
Tip- relaxation techniques, like deep breathing. Inhale slowly for a count of 4, hold your breath for another count of 4 and exhale for a count of four.
2) You don't pay attention to what you eat-according to a 2014 study, 31 % of women and 25 % of men who suffered from back pain also had gastrointestinal issues, including abdominal pain and food intolerance.
But what is the connection between back pain and nutrition? The main culprit here is inflammation. Foods that are high in fat and sugar cause inflammation throughout the body, including the lower back.
Tip- cutting back on sugar and caffeine. Eat clean, whole foods instead of processed ones and always include a protein-rich food in your meals, such as meat or beans, plus whole grains such as brown rice or vegetables.
3) You sit down all day- one of the most detrimental things you can do to your health is sit down all day, as your muscles get used to that position, causing them to tighten up.
Tip- reducing the effect of sitting-induced muscle stiffness and tightness by stretching your calves, hamstrings and glutes when you wake up.
When these muscles begin to tighten, the lower back suffers. Also aim for a quick stretch mid-day and before bed.
4) You're dehydrated. - your spine is made up of 33 vertebrae. Between each disk is a jelly-like substance made up of 90 % water. In order to keep that cushioning intact, your body needs a steady stream of fluid.
When your body id dehydrated, these disks become flatter and less cushiony, which can lead to pain.
Tip- a good way to know if you're drinking enough water is to look at the colour of your urine. It should be clear or light yellow. If it is dark yellow, grab a glass of water.
5) You've urinary tract infection(UTI)- a UTI is often accompanied by pain in the lower and upper back, or sharp pains along the side. Back pain often indicates that a UTI has spread to the kidneys.
TIP- classic UTI symptoms also include a persistent urge to urinate or pain during urination, so visit a doctor immediately if you've these symptoms.
this is only for your information, kindly take the advice of your doctor for medicines, exercises and so on.
