Chronic Back Pain Management in Highland Park and Surrounding Areas

Understanding Chronic Back Pain

Chronic back pain is a persistent pain that lasts for more than three months. It can stem from various causes, including herniated discs, spinal stenosis, muscle strain, and degenerative disc disease. Unlike acute pain, which is a direct response to an injury, chronic back pain persists even after the initial injury or underlying cause has been treated.

When to Seek Treatment

You should seek treatment for chronic back pain if:

• The pain has persisted for more than three months.
• Pain is worsening over time.
• You experience numbness, tingling, or weakness in your legs.
• Pain interferes with daily activities or sleep.

Symptoms to Watch For

Common symptoms of chronic back pain include:

• Dull, aching pain in the lower back.
• Stabbing or shooting pain that radiates down the leg.
• Muscle spasms or tightness in the lower back.
• Difficulty standing up straight or walking.
