Why Lower Back Pain is So Common in Austin
The Complex Structure of Your Lumbar Spine | Supporting Your Body’s Foundation
Your lower back consists of five lumbar vertebrae (L1-L5) that bear the weight of your entire upper body while providing the mobility needed for bending, twisting, and daily activities. This demanding combination makes your lumbar spine vulnerable to injury and dysfunction.
Critical Components:
- Lumbar vertebrae – Large bones designed for weight bearing and stability
- Intervertebral discs – Shock-absorbing cushions that can bulge, herniate, or degenerate
- Facet joints – Small joints that guide spinal movement and can become arthritic
- Spinal ligaments – Strong bands that can become injured or overstretched
- Core muscles – Deep stabilizers that often become weak or imbalanced
- Nerve roots – Exit points where spinal nerves can become compressed or irritated
Why Lower Back Pain Develops: The lumbar spine must support body weight while allowing complex movements in multiple directions. Modern Austin lifestyles—from long commutes to desk jobs to recreational activities—can place additional stress on these structures.
