Back pain can have a variety of causes, including:

• Heavy lifting, sudden movements, and overuse can cause muscle and ligament strain in the back.
• Poor posture during prolonged sitting can cause back discomfort and pain.
• Herniated Discs: Discs serve as cushions between vertebrae. A herniated disc can press on nerves.
