Treatments for Back Pain

Is your back pain a back sprain or degenerative disc disease? The answer may send you to a surgery that you do not need.

The chronic back pain patient typically experiences some type of trauma to the lower back that causes injury to the iliolumbar, sacroiliac, interspinous and supraspinous ligaments and some patients never know the cause of their pain. Over a long period of time this may cause some forward slippage of the fifth lumbar vertebra from the sacrum, which in turn causes excessive pressure on the vertebral disc. Fissures may occur in the disc (at the annulus fibrosis), and this exacerbates the degenerative disc problem.

Ligaments are designed to handle a normal amount of stress (activity or injury) that will stretch them to their natural limit. Once the stress is removed, the ligaments return to their normal length. If additional (traumatic) stress is applied—stretching the ligament beyond its natural range of extension—the ligament will not return to its normal length, but will instead remain permanently over stretched, diminishing its ability to hold the vertebrae in their proper place. Such a condition is called “ligament laxity.”

Ligament laxity in the lower back, as elsewhere in the body, maybe caused by a major traumatic injury, repeated minor injuries to the same area, normal aging, or the wearing out the collagen. Because of poor blood supply, ligaments do not heal well on their own, so once laxity exists, pain is only one wrong turn, twist or exertion away. Many people with this problem have intermittent periods of low back pain that increases with frequency and in severity with aging.

In our own peer-reviewed published research which appeared in the medical journal Biomedical Journal of Scientific & Technical Research, we wrote: “Lower back pain can be a debilitating condition that is often caused by ligament and fascial sprains, and muscle strains. Even though the diagnosis may be a herniated disc, facet arthropathy, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, scoliosis, spondylosis, spondylolisthesis, or other pathology, we have found for the past twenty years, with thousands of successfully treated patients, that the actual pain generator may not even be noted in the diagnosis.” Simply, you may only have a back sprain. This is typically not a problem that is treated surgically. How do we treat it?
