• Repetitive motions

• Sciatica

Are there risk factors associated with lower back pain?

Anyone can develop lower back pain, but some people are more likely to experience it than others. These people include those that fit into the following categories:

• Have a really physical job, as heavy lifting and repetitive motion leads to overuse
• Have a very sedentary job or leaning over a device for long periods, as this can put stress on the back and neck
• Are overweight or pregnant, as the extra weight puts additional stress on the lower back
• Have sustained an injury or live with a chronic condition, like arthritis
