About This Presentation

Slide 1 - Back Pain Back pain is pain felt in the back that usually originates from the muscles, nerves, bones, joints or other structures in the spine. The pain can often be divided into neck pain, upper back pain, lower back pain or tailbone pain. It May have a sudden onset or can be a chronic pain; it can be constant or intermittent, stay in one place or radiate to other areas. It may be a dull ache, or a sharp or piercing or burning sensation. The pain may be radiate into the arm and hand), in the upper back, or in the low back, (and might radiate into the leg or foot), and may include symptoms other than pain, such as weakness, numbness or tingling. Back pain is one of humanity's most frequent complaints. About nine out of ten adults Experience back pain at some point in their life, and five out of ten working adults have back pain every year. The spine is a complex interconnecting network of nerves, joints, muscles, tendons and ligaments, and all are capable of producing pain. Large nerves that originate in the spine and go to the legs and arms can make pain radiate to the extremities.

Slide 3 - Causes of back pain There isn't usually an underlying condition causing back pain - nothing shows up in tests and nothing is permanently damaged. This is called simple or non-specific back pain. Nine out of 10 people with simple back pain recover completely within six weeks. You're more likely to develop simple back pain if you: stand, sit or bend down for long periods lift, carry, push or pull loads that are too heavy, or if you go about these tasks in the wrong way have a trip or a fall are stressed or anxious are overweight Occasionally, there may be a more serious underlying cause of your back pain, but this is rare. These causes include osteoporosis, a prolapsed (slipped) disc, spinal stenosis, malformation of the spine, infection or collapse of the vertebrae, tuberculosis or cancer.
Slide 4 - What are the risk factors for back pain? A risk factor is something which increases the likelihood of developing a condition or disease. For example, obesity significantly raises the risk of developing diabetes type 2. Therefore, obesity is a risk factor for diabetes type 2. The following factors are linked to a higher risk of developing low back pain: A mentally stressful job Pregnancy - pregnant women are much more likely to get back pain A sedentary lifestyle Age - older adults are more susceptible than young adults or children Anxiety Depression Gender - back pain is more common among females than males Obesity/overweight Smoking Strenuous physical exercise (especially if not done properly) Strenuous physical work
Slide 5 - Symptoms of back pain Simple back pain is often in your lower back (lumbar region), and may also spread to your buttocks and thighs. It's often described as a dull pain and can come and go at different times, depending on your level of activity. The pain can begin suddenly or come on gradually if you strain your back over time. Simple back pain usually only lasts a few days and gets better on its own. However, you should see your GP as soon as possible if, as well as back pain, you have: fever (high temperature) redness or swelling on your back pain down your legs and below your knees numbness or weakness in one or both legs or around your buttocks loss of bladder or bowel control (incontinence) Some symptoms are called "red flags" and may indicate that you require treatment for an underlying condition.

Slide 6 - Diagnosis of back pain Your GP will ask you about your symptoms and examine you. He or she may also ask you about your medical history. If your pain lasts longer than six weeks, or if your GP suspects there is some underlying cause of your pain, he or she may recommend more tests such as: X-rays CT scans - a CT scan uses X-rays to make a three-dimensional image of the body/or part of the body MRI - an MRI scan uses magnets and radiowaves to produce images of the inside of your body blood tests
