Back Injuries & Conditions

Lumbar Strain/Sprain

A spinal disc bulges or ruptures, pressing on nerves. Can cause lower back pain, sciatica, or leg weakness.

Sciatica

Pain radiating down the leg from the lower back, caused by compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve, often due to a herniated disc.

Spinal Stenosis

A vertebra slips out of place onto the one below it. Can cause back pain and nerve symptoms.
