Is there a solution, especially alternatives to traditional medicine for a low back disorder?
First of all we need to identify which structures in the back are generating the pain. The back is composed of several different tissues, which can cause pain when injured or diseased. There are bones, joints, ligaments, discs, nerves and muscles that work together to provide support for the entire body and movement for the lower body.Injuries or infection in the bone can be spotted on X-rays. Pain in these cases will be localized to the involved area. A herniated disc putting pressure on an adjacent nerve root will cause back pain plus pain down the leg in a pattern specific for that particular nerve.Specific patterns of muscle weakness or skin numbness also may occur. There may be inflammation or injury to the joints between the vertebrae (facets) or to the main joint between the lowest back bone (the sacrum) and the pelvic bone (the iliac).Ligaments can become overstritched by injury, leading to pain and instability. Ligaments strain can refer pain down the leg in specific patterns,
