Anatomy of the back

• The back and the spine are some of the most
  complex structures in the entire body, composed
  of vertebral discs, tendons, ligaments, muscles,
  and bone. You can have injuries or mechanical
  issues in any part of the intricate structure of
  the spine, which can cause pain. The spine is
  classified by four regions
• Cervical Neck, made up of seven vertebrae
• Thoracic Upper back,made up of 12 vertebrae
• Lumbar -Lower back,made up of five vertebrae
• Sacral region Located below the low back and
  made up of 5 vertebrae

Most Common Types of Back Pain

• The back is one of the most commonly injured
  regions of the body and injury can result in
  anything from overuse or poor posture, to sitting
  or standing in a way that isnt healthy for your
  spine.
• The most commonly cited injured region of the
  back is low back pain, but back pain can occur in
  any region of the back. Pulled muscles, ,
  sprained ligaments, strained tendons, or slip
  discs in your spine can all lead to pain.

Acute vs. Chronic Back Pain

• Depending on the nature of your injury and how
  long it has lasted, you could either have acute
  or chronic back pain. If symptoms last less than
  three months, it is an acute injury. Any symptoms
  of back pain that last longer three months can be
  identified as chronic pain. The range of spine
  pain can span from mild to severe, and can either
  be intermittent or constant pain. Back pain can
  be a severe health condition that should be taken
  seriously. It can dramatically impact the quality
  of life that you have, how you are able to move,
  what you are able to do, and the dependence or
  independence that you have in your life. Severe
  or debilitating back pain can also cause
  psychological issues like depression.
• If you are suffering from low back pain, see a
  doctor that specializes in back pain for an
  accurate diagnose and explore treatment options.

Disc Herniation

• Between each of the vertebrae in your spine are
  vertebral discs. These discs provide additional
  support and shock absorption for the spine. Each
  disc is composed of an inner layer ( nucleus) and
  an outer fibrous layer (annulus fibrosis). A disc
  can herniate or rupture when the inner layer of
  the disc breaks through a weakened portion of the
  outer layer. Rupturing can irritate nearby
  nerves in the spine which can cause numbness,
  pain, or weakness in either your lower or upper
  extremities. Disc herniation can occur in any
  region of the spine, but it is most commonly
  suffered in the lumbar region.
