Both back trauma and lumbar spondylosis are degenerative conditions affecting the spine. They are often used interchangeably, but they are different things. It’s important to know that one can lead to another; this article will look at how they affect the body and how they can be treated successfully without surgery.
What is lumbar spondylosis?
Lumbar spondylosis is a condition caused by degeneration of the lumbar disc or facet joints. It is a degenerative condition affecting discs, vertebral bodies, and associated joints of lumbar vertebrae. Over time, these can lead to pain in muscles and ligaments as well as numbness, tingling, or weakness in limbs because of spinal cord compression. Lumbar spondylosis causes back pain because it puts pressure on nerves coming out from your spinal cord that goes up through your neck and into your brain. When you have a lot of pressure on those nerves it can cause numbness around your shoulder blades or arm pain when you reach for something with one arm but not with the other arm.
What are the causes of back problems?
The causes of back problems vary but can be contributed to a combination of factors including accidents, lack of exercise, poor posture, and sitting for extended periods of time. Spinal injury from an accident or other event is one major cause of back problems; if not treated properly, this can lead to long-term pain and discomfort in the lower back area. Poor posture when sitting or standing for long periods can also lead to lower back pain or stiffness in the neck as well as pain in other areas such as the shoulders, hips, knees, or feet. Sitting with good posture helps relieve pressure on your spine while exercising regularly strengthens it by keeping it healthy.

How can I prevent back injuries?
Dr. Rajeev Kumar Singh Patna, a Radiologist from Dr. Rajeev Kumar Singh Patna Clinic has some insight on how to prevent back injuries:
1) Focus on stretching exercises for your back like forwarding bends, side bends, or twisting poses when doing yoga or working out at the gym.
2) Make sure you are maintaining good posture throughout your day by sitting up straight and avoiding slouching over your phone or computer for too long at a time.
3) When lifting heavy objects, make sure to keep in mind that it’s best to bend your knees as opposed to bending at the waist as that can put pressure on nerves in your lower back and cause pain down your legs or numbness in them.
