A common, painful condition affecting the lower portion of the spine.
Low back pain is caused by injury to a muscle (strain) or ligament (sprain). Common causes include improper lifting, poor posture, lack of regular exercise, a fracture, a ruptured disc or arthritis.
Often, the only symptom is pain in the lower back.
Most low back pain goes away on its own in two to four weeks. Physiotherapy and pain relievers can help. A few cases may require surgery.
Usually self-treatable
Usually self-diagnosable
Lab tests or imaging rarely required

Get the Lumbago mug.Related Words
Suburb in Uppsala, Sweden. During the constant gang war with the real tough hoods, like Luthagen and Fålhagen, Luthagen has retained nothing more than a shadow of it's former glory. In Luthagen, most inhabitans are students that are too weak to last in a street fight. They once had a train station, but it was burnt down in the gang war.
