Causes of Back Ache / Back Pain
Back pain is a general ailment which can be caused by general fatique, irregular sitting postures at your office desk, continuous hours of standing and over exercising of your back muscles. Disc injury can also be the cause of prolonged back pain, muscles and ligaments may also be damaged or inflamed. Other causes may be infections, tumor, cysts and bone spurs.
Discs are located between the bones in the spine. Disc damage can be a slipped disc or sometimes called herniated / ruptured or bulging disc. Discs do not actually slip. Discs that rupture leak their internal fluid. This can interfere with nerve energy flow and can cause pain. Discs can degenerate causing bone to grind on bone and tissue to be displaced. This can also place pressure on nerves causing pain due to bone fragments or loose tissue.
Rupturing can quite often occur when a disc has been bulging for a while or can suddenly occur due to an accident or sudden force on the spine due to incorrect lifting.
The sacroiliac joint can create pain when it does not sit in its housing correctly. This problem occurs in a higher rate in women than men, this is due to the increased flexibility in this area. The joint fuses in men at about 35 years old and about 50 years old for women. A few factors may vary the time of this fusion.
Exercise / Yoga for Back Pain

This is something that must be done strictly under the guidance of your doctor / consultant. There may be a little back pain after exercises but don't be put of. Try again at less intensity.
