What
Causes
Back Pain?

Back pain can stem from many different sources, ranging from everyday habits to more complex spinal conditions. It may develop gradually from poor posture or repetitive strain, or it can even appear suddenly after an accident or injury. In some cases, back pain is linked to age-related changes, inflammation, or nerve irritation.

Some of the most common causes of back pain include:

  • Muscle or ligament strain
  • Herniated or bulging discs
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Arthritis in the spine
  • Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
  • Poor posture or prolonged sitting
  • Injuries from accidents or heavy lifting
  • Nerve compression conditions, such as sciatica

Dr. Patel takes the time to carefully evaluate your history, symptoms, and diagnostic imaging to pinpoint the exact source of your back pain. By identifying the root cause, he can create a personalized, minimally invasive treatment plan to relieve pain and restore function.
