What are the causes Back Pain?

The most common cause of back pain, especially lower back pain, is a combination of poor posture and lack of movement, typically seen with people who sit for long periods. This is known as mechanical back pain and is not a serious condition. However, it can be uncomfortable and frustrating to experience a constant ache or pain in your back.
There are more complex causes of back pain like disc prolapse, ankylosing spondylitis, osteoporosis, arthritis or fracture which require a more detailed assessment.
