About the Condition

What It Is & Why It Happens

Lower back pain affects 80% of adults at some point. The vast majority of cases are mechanical — meaning movement, posture or loading patterns are driving the pain, and these can be changed.

At Juhu Physiotherapy Clinic, our first job is to classify your back pain accurately — is it discogenic, facet-related, SI joint, muscular or a combination? — and then deliver a targeted plan.

Recovery outlook: Most patients see significant relief in 3–4 sessions and full recovery within 6–8 weeks. Chronic cases may need slightly longer.

Common Causes

Prolonged sitting (especially without breaks)
Lifting with poor mechanics
Sudden, unaccustomed activity
Weak hip and core muscles
Stress and reduced sleep
Old injuries that healed badly

Symptoms

Symptoms of Lower Back Pain

The signs and symptoms we most commonly see with this condition.

🔸

Pain Worse on Movement

Bending, sitting up from bed or standing from a chair makes pain spike.

⚠️

Stiffness

Particularly first thing in the morning, easing with movement.

💢

Referred Pain

Sometimes spreads to buttock or thigh — usually mechanical, not nerve.

🌀

Difficulty with Daily Tasks

Putting on socks, picking up shopping, sitting for long periods.

📉

Worse with Inactivity

Sitting for hours often worse than walking.

🔻

No Red Flags

No bladder/bowel changes, no progressive weakness — most back pain is benign.

When to Seek Help

When to See a Physiotherapist

Don't wait for it to 'sort itself out' — these signs mean it's time to book.

⏳

Pain Beyond 2 Weeks

Pain that hasn't settled with rest deserves a proper assessment.

🌙

Pain Disturbing Sleep

Night pain usually responds very well to physiotherapy.

📉

Limiting Daily Life

Work, exercise or sleep being affected by the pain.

🔁

Recurring Episodes

The same problem keeps coming back time after time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions Answered

Quick answers to questions our Juhu patients ask most often.

Should I get an MRI?

Usually not — clinical assessment is enough for most back pain. Imaging often shows incidental findings unrelated to pain.

Can I exercise with back pain?

Yes — guided movement actually speeds recovery. Total rest worsens outcomes.

When should I worry?

Red flags include: bladder/bowel changes, severe progressive leg weakness, unexplained weight loss. Call us — we'll guide you.
