Conditions commonly linked to back pain include:
1. Bulging or ruptured disks
Disks act as cushions between the bones (vertebrae) in your spine. The soft material inside a disk can bulge or rupture and press on a nerve. However, you can have a bulging or ruptured disk without back pain
2. Osteoporosis
Your spine’s vertebrae can develop painful fractures if your bones become porous and brittle.
3. Muscle or ligament strain
Repeated heavy lifting or a sudden awkward movement can strain back muscles and spinal ligaments.
4. Arthritis
Osteoarthritis can affect the lower back. In some cases, arthritis in the spine can lead to a narrowing of the space around the spinal cord, a condition called spinal stenosis.
