The main reason 70 percent of people complain of lower back pain is because of a lumbar sprain, a twisted ligament in your lower back.

The result is varying degrees of back pain.

Before you can receive treatment for your lower back pain, you require an accurate diagnosis from a spine specialist like Dr. Amr Hosny. At his practice with other spine doctors, the Spine & Rehab Group, you find expert and compassionate care from top doctors in New York City and northern New Jersey. The earlier you get your spine examined, the sooner you can get lumbar sprain treatment.
Your spine helps you to stand tall while supporting your weight and protecting your organs. Your lower back provides the flexibility you need to bend, turn and twist. When you move with a sudden jerk, especially if you’re not properly warmed up, you can aggravate the soft tissues around your spine. When you hurt your back in a sports injury, you may have bent or twisted your spine in a clumsy way that inflamed or created micro-tears in those tissues. Lower back sprains usually happen to people between the ages of 20 to 50. Other ways you may have caused a lumbar sprain include:
Pain is the first way you know there’s something wrong with your lower back. You also may have felt a pop or a tear when the injury occurred. Getting to a spine doctor is your best course of action, as only an experienced, board-certified specialist like Dr. Hosny can accurately diagnose your condition and prescribe effective treatment.
Dr. Hosny and his team of spine experts in NYC and northern NJ rely on state-of-the-art medical technology to learn how severe your injury is. And they know how to treat a lumbar sprain. Besides the first rush of pain, other symptoms that alert you to a lower back sprain include:
