Abstract :
According to the records, 80 to 90% of people suffer from LBP. It is becoming increasingly common among young adults and it is spreading and becoming a public health concern. It is increasing day by day just because of a poor and sedentary lifestyle, a lack of physical activity, obesity, and poor posture. It can be prevented by managing lifestyle, improving daily habits, regular exercise, and a healthy diet. Basically, LBP is a discomfort between the lower ribs and the glutes. It can feel like a dull ache or a sharp sting, and it makes moving or standing straight hard. LBP causes include disc injuries, impaired posture, muscular weakness, and some other diseases like arthritis, osteoporosis, spondylitis, etc. Early diagnosis and management can save us from chronic pain; non-specific LBP can be managed with manual therapies(heat, massage, acupuncture, spinal adjustment through chiropractic techniques) and exercise therapies, rest, and medication.
