- Low Fitness Level: Back pain is common among those with low fitness levels as weak back and abdominal muscles do not support the spine.*
- Manual Labor: Jobs/activities that require heavy lifting or continuous exertion of strength can lead to back pain or additional injury.*
- Stationary Workspace: If you’re inactive and seated for the majority of the day, back pain can be caused by poor posture or lack of suitable back support.*
- Mental Health Factors: If you’re struggling with certain mental health challenges such as anxiety or depression, pain can be an amplified point of focus – increasing the perception of your back-pain’s severity. In general, stress can also contribute to muscle tension.* If you believe you may be experiencing symptoms of depression or anxiety talk to your doctor.
- Genetics: Certain causes of back pain (i.e. ankylosing spondylitis – a form of arthritis that affects the spine) can be linked to genetic factors.* Talk to your doctor if you believe that a genetic disorder is causing your pain.
