Dealing with and managing back pain can become challenging and quite expensive. Most of the times you manage to deal with back pain only for it to come back. Because more often than not the symptoms are being treated and not the problem itself, which is spinal compression.
The spinal column houses the spinal cord within the canal it forms, and it also supports the upper body, holding it upright. The column is divided into three parts – Cervical spine, Thoracic spine, and Lumbar spine regions. The three regions combined consist of 33 vertebrae that form the spinal column.
Spinal compression can affect any of these regions, but pain in the lumbar region is most common. This is partly due to the fact that it has to support the whole upper body.
Back pain is oftentimes associated with back deformity. The spinal column has a very special S shape. When the shape of the column deforms (or becomes compressed) it can irritate the surrounding nerves and tissue, triggering pain sensations. Spinal compression is one such deformity.
When external pressures press onto the spine, they can cause the spinal column to become squashed or pressed down. This is called spinal compression. This deformity may lead to more complications and is a cause of concern as it is often overlooked as a cause of pain.
There are many risk factors associated with developing compression along the spine, including:
The symptoms commonly associated with spinal compression are pain, numbness, weakness in the arms, hands, legs or feet. The pain may come suddenly or gradually. Without proper care spinal compression can do damage to your body and lead to complications such as:
The development of spinal cord compression represents a medical emergency and should be treated as soon as possible. Symptoms of spinal cord compression may start with simple back pain, which can worsen and may also be accompanied by more severe symptoms such as stiffness, numbness, walking problems, or even loss of bladder and bowel control.
Most cases of back pain caused by compression of the spine can be treated naturally, with a simple treatment plan. This oftentimes involves some form of mobilisation of the spine, such as physical therapy, to allow the spine to regain its mobility and length. However, this process can be rather lengthy, expensive, and difficult to fit into one’s schedule.
