Understanding Lower Back Pain

Lower back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek medical care. It can range from mild discomfort to severe pain that limits movement, affects sleep, and interferes with work and daily activities.

At OccuHealth Surgery Center, our specialists focus on identifying the source of lower back pain and developing personalized treatment plans designed to reduce discomfort, improve function, and help patients return to normal activity.

Common Causes of Lower Back Pain

Lower back pain can develop suddenly after an injury or gradually over time due to wear and tear on the spine and surrounding structures.

Common causes include:

  • Muscle strains
  • Ligament injuries
  • Herniated discs
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Spinal stenosis
  • Facet joint arthritis
  • Sciatica
  • Sports injuries

Because several conditions can cause similar symptoms, a proper evaluation is important before treatment begins.

Symptoms That Should Be Evaluated

Lower back pain may present in different ways depending on the underlying cause. Some patients experience a constant ache, while others develop sharp pain with movement.

Additional symptoms may include:

  • Pain that radiates into the hips or legs
  • Numbness or tingling
  • Muscle weakness
  • Stiffness after sitting or resting
  • Difficulty standing or walking for extended periods

If your symptoms are persistent or worsening, a professional evaluation can help determine the most effective treatment approach.

Treatment Options for Lower Back Pain

Our goal is to reduce pain while improving mobility and overall quality of life.

Conservative Treatment

Many patients respond well to non-surgical therapies. Treatment may include physical therapy, activity modification, stretching programs, and non-addictive pain management options designed to improve strength and flexibility.

Interventional Pain Management

For patients with ongoing symptoms, targeted injections may help reduce inflammation and provide longer-lasting relief. These treatments can also help identify the specific source of pain.

Surgical Evaluation

When conservative treatment does not provide adequate relief, surgical intervention may be considered. Our orthopedic specialists evaluate each patient individually and recommend surgery only when appropriate.

Diagnosis and Assessment

Effective treatment begins with an accurate diagnosis. During your appointment, our team reviews your symptoms, medical history, and activity level before performing a physical examination.

Diagnostic testing may include:

X-rays

MRI imaging

CT scans

Once testing is complete, we review the results with you, explain what is causing your pain, and outline the next steps in a personalized treatment plan.

I was injured at work and my great rt big toe was broken with an open wound fracture. I was able to get this wonderful referral to Dr. V and his assistant David for my surgery. I was so impressed that everyone was so nice and helpful. I was very nervous about the surgery but I was so happy to have a great positive team that all team played together. I am very satisfied with how well my surgery went and how fast I was able to get my injury repaired. I will continue to follow up with his team and I will continue to tell people that this place is awesome and very professional.
