Signs Your Back Needs Care

Until the underlying issue is corrected, back pain tends to keep coming back. Watch for:

Dull, aching pain in your lower or upper back

Stiffness that makes it hard to bend or get out of bed

Pain that gets worse after sitting or standing a long time

Sharp pain when you lift, twist or move a certain way

Pain that keeps returning, even after rest

What Causes Back Pain?

Your back is made up of bones, joints, muscles, nerves and discs all working together. When even one part is out of balance, the result is pain.

Common causes include a bulging or herniated disc, a spinal misalignment and muscle strain. The longer you wait, the more your body compensates, which can create new problems in your neck, hips or legs.

Get emergency care right away if back pain comes with loss of bladder or bowel control, numbness in the groin area, weakness in your legs, or a fever.

Back Pain Questions, Answered

Can a chiropractor help with a herniated or bulging disc?

In many cases, yes. After an exam and X-rays, Dr. Casteel uses gentle adjustments and soft tissue work to take pressure off the disc and nearby nerves. If your condition needs another specialist, he will tell you.

Will my back pain go away on its own?

Minor strains sometimes ease with rest, but pain from a disc or misalignment often gets worse over time because the cause was never fixed. If pain lasts more than a few days or keeps coming back, get an exam.

How many visits will I need?

It depends on what is causing your pain and how long you have had it. After your exam, Dr. Casteel will tell you how many visits he expects it to take, so you know the plan up front.

Is back pain treatment covered by insurance?

Most major plans cover chiropractic care, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, UPMC, Aetna and Medicare in most cases. Call and we will help check your benefits before your first visit.
