Common Causes of Back Pain in Bowie

Some 31 million Americans are experiencing back pain at any given time, including right here in Bowie. Furthermore, experts state that 80% of us will suffer from back pain at some point in our lives. At Taber Chiropractic, your Bowie, MD chiropractor, many of our patients initially see us for help with their back and neck pain. What is causing all of this discomfort? 

Causes of Back Pain

Back pain can occur in the young and old. It can occur seemingly instantly and become chronic over time. Here are some common causes of back pain.

• Lifting heavy materials

You may have seen or experienced this yourself. You bend over to lift a heavy box and are nearly brought to tears by sharp, lower back pain.

• Poor posture

The need for good posture doesn't stop after you become an adult. Many of us allow our posture to decline to the point where it creates back pain. Chiropractic care will help.

• Poor ergonomics

Poor ergonomics in the workplace is also a major cause of back pain. Many sit, hunched over computers. Others stand improperly. Others may be forced to stretch or reach constantly. All of these can lead to back pain.

• Poor orthotics

Poorly fitted orthotic devices can sometimes do more harm than good, especially when people use “do-it-yourself” devices.

• Auto accidents

Injuries like whiplash can easily occur in a car accident. Some injuries may not manifest themselves for days or weeks. It is important you see a chiropractor whether you feel back pain immediately following an accident or not.
