Causes of Chronic Back Pain

To create an effective back pain treatment plan, we should first understand its underlying cause. Here are some possible reasons that might trigger your chronic back pain.

Poor posture

Maintaining a poor posture is one of the most prominent causes of chronic back pain. The unnecessary stress on the muscles and ligaments in your back can cause inflammation and stiffness, leading to severe pain.

Lifting of heavy objects

You can also experience chronic back pain from overexertion, improper heavy lifting or sudden movements. These can cause muscle spasms or add too much pressure to your spinal column.

Herniated disc

Herniated or bulging discs can pressure the nerves in the spine and back. This can cause severe lower back pain if left untreated

Spinal stenosis

Narrowing of the spinal canal, referred to as spinal stenosis, results from nerve compression, which can cause severe pain and discomfort

Degenerative conditions

Osteoarthritis, disc degeneration disease, and spondylolisthesis are some degenerative conditions that can also cause severe pain

Integrated Approaches to Back Pain Treatment

Role of Nivaan's Multidisciplinary Team

There is a common belief that chronic pain is usually a result of some injuries, damage to tissues or muscles, bone abnormalities, or the natural wear and tear of ageing. We recognise that these factors contribute significantly to chronic back pain but might not be the sole reason. The causes of back pain and its impact on your life can go beyond biological aspects.

The best way to understand the pain conditions is with a biopsychosocial approach undertaken by our multidisciplinary team. Super specialists from different disciplines – pain specialists, pain therapists, physiotherapists and nutritionists – collaborate to design a back pain treatment plan from a biopsychosocial lens.

Biological approach to
back pain treatment​

The biological approach considers the physical impact of chronic pain on your body. Injury, muscle or tissue damage, bone dysfunction or age-related wear & tear reflects on your physical body. This causes you to experience pain in your back. Certain back pain conditions limit mobility and compel you to avoid performing activities like playing your favourite sport or exercising.​

Our pain specialists work with you to understand and diagnose the underlying cause of your chronic back pain.

Psychological approach
to back pain treatment

The inability to engage in joyful activities can result in the buildup of emotions and feelings that may worsen your pain. Your feelings, thoughts and ways of dealing with pain significantly impact how you perceive it. The constant battle with chronic back pain can trigger depression, anxiety, and a sense of hopelessness regarding recovery, amplifying our pain receptors and increasing pain sensitivity.​

Our pain therapists will teach coping strategies to manage stress and guide you in regulating your emotions better.

Social approach to back pain treatment

The social impact of chronic back pain is reflected in the withdrawal from interactions with friends and family due to excruciating pain. Isolating yourself from social gatherings can increase stress hormones, intensifying your pain. The social approach encourages positive and supportive interactions that help release endogenous opiates, your body’s natural pain-relieving substances, offering significant pain relief.

Our multidisciplinary team values a positive environment and supports you throughout your pain journey

With the bio-psycho-social approach, our team understands the different layers of chronic pain and designs integrated treatment plans to help you cope and make your journey in pain management more manageable.

How to sleep with back pain?

Suffering from chronic back pain can significantly affect your sleep schedule. The back pain treatment option for this problem lies in the ideal sleeping position. 

Here are some ideal sleeping positions for people with chronic back pain issues-

  • If you are a back sleeper -  We recommend you sleep with a thin pillow or a rolled towel under your knees to maintain the natural curvature of your lower back. It relieves the pressure in the lumbar region and reduces the strain.
  • If you are a Side sleeper - We recommend using a thicker pillow that supports the head and neck and is aligned with your spine. It helps to get in the fetal position and prevents strain on the back and neck.
  • If you are a Stomach sleeper - We recommend you sleep without a pillow or use a thin pillow to prevent excessive neck arching and reduce pressure on your spine.

Our multidisciplinary team at Nivaan Care, comprising a pain management specialist, physiotherapist, pain therapist and nutritionist, offers a well-rounded diagnosis and back pain treatment.
