Back Strain

Symptoms

  • Mild to severe pain in the affected area
  • Muscle spasms
  • Difficulty moving or bending the back

Causes

  • Overuse or repetitive strain of the muscles in the back, such as lifting heavy objects or twisting awkwardly
  • Sudden and forceful movements that may happen during activity, a fall, or a car accident
  • Improper posture or body mechanics, which can put extra stress on the back muscles and lead to strain
