We are continuing our series on possible reasons why you are experiencing back pain. While only a back pain doctor can properly diagnose and get to the root of your issue, there are some common culprits.  Our previous article covered posture, injuries, and stress.  Let’s take a closer look at more causes of back pain.

Scoliosis

Scoliosis is an additional curvature of the spine.  If you have scoliosis, a qualified chiropractor can tell you if it is mild, moderate or severe.  Even mild scoliosis can result in back pain.

Mattress

Mattresses lose their support over time.  A non-supporting mattress can be a culprit of back pain. If your mattress is more than eight years old, then there is a good chance it could be the reason behind needing a back pain doctor. 

Rigorous Activity

Have you participated in a rigorous activity lately?  If you’ve recently spent the day riding roller coasters or taking your new Jeep through a mud pit, then your back pain could be a result of extra muscle strain due to rigorous activity.  A few chiropractic adjustments and massage therapy sessions may be in order to help ease the tension and help you to feel pain free.
