Does your back hurt? Do you have problems with walking, getting up and almost any movement? Spinal pain can make everyday activities unpleasant. The causes and type of pain are very varied and more severe spinal problems can lead to disability.
Find out what the causes of spinal pain are and what treatment options exist. How to suppress unpleasant spinal pain? Read more here.
Limited mobility is common for patients who have inflammation in the joints. Spinal pain may be accompanied by weakness and tingling in the legs or pain in the buttocks. The burning pain in the arm from the spine is no exception. Some patients even complain of abdominal pain from the spine, which may be related to oppression of the nerves around the spine. [2]
Only a doctor can make a correct diagnosis. Do not use this or any other article on the internet to make a diagnosis. Don’t put off seeing a doctor and address your condition early.
Spinal pain can occur anywhere in the back – from the cervical spine to the lower back. It can be mild and last only a short time, in other cases the pain is severe and troubles patients for a long time. Spinal pain can occur after a strain, a fall or a sudden movement, but in some cases the reason for the pain is not obvious. It may also be related to a chronic disease. [3]
Back and spinal pain can vary in character (sharp, dull, burning) and in duration (acute or chronic).
Acute back pain- usually lasts 1-2 weeks. The cause of pain is usually inflammation, an injury such as a muscle injury, an illness or a medical procedure. It will subside after the cause of the pain is resolved.
Chronic back pain – lasts for months or even years. It may ease and return repeatedly, or last throughout the duration of the trouble. It often accompanies some chronic disease, such as arthritis. It fundamentally disrupts the quality of life. [4]
Many factors are involved in the development of spinal pain.
A proper diagnosis is usually necessary for spinal pain if the pain lasts for more than two weeks and the condition does not improve. In most cases, the pain subsides during this time.
What is the procedure if you go to the doctor with spinal pain?
If spinal pain is not treated early and correctly, various complications can develop.
Chronic pain
Restricted mobility
Muscle weakness
Arthritis
Do not delay treatment for spinal pain and see a specialist if you have any health problems or doubts about your health. This will prevent unnecessary health complications.
Spinal pain is usually treated conservatively, i.e. without surgery. After the examination, the patient will learn what will bring pain relief in a given situation and how to proceed to prevent the recurrence of the problem. [12]
The patient should remain reasonably active despite the pain – bed rest should not last more than 1-2 days. Prolonged passivity can contribute to muscle stiffness and prolong the duration of pain.
Treatment for spinal pain can only be determined by your doctor after considering your overall health. Therefore, do not use this article as a guide to treatment, which can only be determined by a doctor.
Not treating (popularly called “passing on”) spinal pain and not following recommendations on how to care for your back can lead to long-term problems. Physiotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of spinal pain and serves primarily as a prevention of further problems.
Surgery is used, for example, in patients who need to stabilise their vertebrae or remove part of a herniated disc.
However, surgery on a herniated intervertebral disc will only resolve the problem in one in ten patients. Spinal surgery (spinal surgery) uses many different types of surgery and procedures are constantly being improved. [15],[16]
Prevention of spinal pain and the development of chronic pain is mainly based on lifestyle changes and ergonomic measures. Long-term spinal care can be summarised in 10 points:
Lifestyle
Ergonomics
Alternative treatments for spinal pain include acupuncture, massage or chiropractic.
Acupuncture can provide pain relief for some types of spinal pain and promote back mobility. Some patients, on the other hand, prefer massages that relieve muscle tension. Another possible treatment is chiropractic, which is the use of manual techniques to unblock the spine. Due to the possible side effects of spinal manipulation, it is necessary to carefully select a workplace where only experts in this field are present. [19]
Spinal pain can be related to inflammation, so an anti-inflammatory diet can also be tried.
What foods have anti-inflammatory effects?
Treatment for spinal pain is always determined by a doctor based on a general examination, an assessment of your health and an accurate diagnosis.
After a general examination, your doctor will recommend treatment for the cause of your spinal pain. They will also advise you on possible lifestyle adjustments and the next course of action.
Symptomatic treatment focuses on the manifestations or signs (symptoms) of the disease. Such treatment can significantly improve your quality of life and support comprehensive treatment during the course of the disease.

The solution may be symptomatic treatment using pulsed magnetotherapy, which targets symptoms and signs such as pain, swelling and inflammation. In addition, such treatment can support comprehensive treatment and significantly improve quality of life.
The basic principle of Biomag 3D pulsed magnetotherapy is the generation of electromagnetic pulses. These pulses penetrate through the clothing and through the entire depth of the tissue to the point of targeted application. The pulses have specially developed biotropic parameters (e.g. frequency, shape, intensity) to best affect various health problems.
The application is very simple. Select the desired therapeutic effect on the device and attach the connected applicator to the desired application site. Magnetotherapy is usually applied 2 times a day for 20 minutes.
We will be happy to help you try this method free of charge and advise you on which device to purchase.
