Facts & Figures - Back Injury
Most people will experience the pain of a back injury at some point in their lives. This problem is usually caused by sudden damage or stress to the back or by gradual wear over years. The lower region, which includes the lumbar spine, is the most commonly injured. Two of the more common forms of back injury are Degenerative Disc Disease and a herniated disc. Degenerative Disc Disease refers to progressive damage done to a specific disc in one’s back. While the disc itself may degenerate, the pain of the injury often becomes more manageable over time. A herniated disc occurs when a disc breaks or bulges out of the spine, removing its support from the vertebrae. Symptoms of back injury usually include pain and swelling, as well as numbness or weakness.
Fact: Most back injuries occur between the ages of 20 and 50.
Fact: Back pain that starts over the age of 50 is more likely to have a serious underlying cause.
