Back pain (also known "dorsalgia") is pain felt in the back that may originate from the muscles, nerves, bones, joints or other structures in the spine.
The pain may have a sudden onset or it can be a chronic pain, it can be felt constantly or intermittently, stay in one place or refer or radiate to other areas. It may be a dull ache, or a sharp or piercing or burning sensation. The pain may be felt in the neck (and might 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. In the U.S., acute low back pain (also called lumbago) is the fifth most common reason for all physician visits. 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.

Effective Exercises To Relieve Back Pain

According to the latest surveys and studies, nearly 80% of all Americans experience some sort of back pain in their lives. The American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons believes this as well, as they say 80% of us out there are some types of

problem with our back before we die.

traditionally the treatment of back pain is increasing core strength, increase flexibility, in that the muscles are tense, resulting in a better stabilization of the spine and exercises to correct the imbalances in the muscles. The muscles that surround the spine is the stability and support the spine.

Every muscle between the hips and shoulders are included as well as those muscles are used as the core muscles. Back pain can be muscle imbalances caused by one of these core muscles. If the back of your thighs are weaker than the front of the thigh, it is an uneven pull on the front of your spine.

There are some effective ways that you can core strength training exercises in all the exercises you instead of just the traditional crunches and sit-ups. One such way is through the respiratory effect. Deep breathing using your diaphragm muscles, which help strengthen the spine and the extension of the spine,

what is in the lower back and support you when you walk or run.

for the bridge, put your feet on a bench or on the ground ball and your pelvis upward, as your chest should be low to reduce the irritation to your muscles of the spine. The bridge will help to stress on the back and the focus of muscle contractions in the gluten and the hamstrings.

Other exercises for back pain are the lumbar side stretch, hip flexor stretch, calf, and, as all three can help to pull on your spine.

hip flexor stretch When we have a hip flexor stretch to a foot forward in a bent knee, 90 degree angle, while the other leg on the ground behind it with your foot upward toward the ceiling. The hip flexor stretch will lead to opening up the back muscles on the side of the spine near the waist. You can also squeeze your glutes as

and deepen the stretch with each breath you breathe. You should begin to feel in your back leg, in the upper front and hamstrings on the front leg.

Lumbar side stretch This stretch will bring your legs wide with your knees bent while you sit or stand. Just the one in the direction of your foot on the inside of the

thighs and the other hand behind his head.

The last piece is your Achilles tendon, the most distant train on the spine. For this, an object under his foot and lean the weight of the body forward. Maintain a fluid breath hold while you are for 30 seconds or

so. After a while, you should start a bit behind the knees and shins.
