Unfortunately, most of us suffer from back pain at some point in our lifetime. The main causes of acute back pain are from sprains, strains, or minor injuries to your back, or from a pinched or irritated nerve. There may be lower back pain right side or lower back pain left side, but since nerves stretch out from the spinal cord throughout the entire body, in some severe cases back pain can cause pain in areas of your body such as the neck, shoulders, buttocks and thighs.
If pain worsens or persists for 3 days or more, consult a doctor.
