Sore or achy back muscles can result from an injury or medical condition. As you grow older, though, the reasons could be from work, repetitive activities, sitting too long or incorrectly, exercise or just getting older to name a few. Whatever the reason, here’s some of the ways back pain can affect you.
Dull Aching Sensation
Typically, lower back pain goes away on its own within 72 hours. If it does, it’s usually nothing to worry about. It could be the result of back pain from sitting down for too long or overextending your muscles during a workout. However, if the discomfort isn’t dissipating, you might want to see a CMT that specializes in Myofascial release therapy about getting therapy for back pain relief in Gold River. That will help strained or tensed muscles relax, so you’ll feel better in no time.
Sharp Pain Instead of a Dull Ache
A sharp pain could mean that you have muscle problems or some other type of issue. You don’t have to “live with” chronic back pain. Therapy can help.
Problems Sleeping
Is the pain in your back keeping you awake? Therapy can relieve your back pain, allowing you to get the rest you need to face your day. With regular sessions, you won’t have to worry about being tired and irritable during the day because of lack of sleep.
Inability to Focus
If your back pain is acting up, that’s probably why you can’t concentrate on work. Get pain relief so you can focus on your tasks without any discomfort.
Social Isolation
If you spend most of your time resting at home because of your back pain, that isolates you from people. Going to therapy can help you be active in your social circle again.
