What causes back pain in men?

As the pressure of life continues to increase, men's pressure will increase more. Mortgages, car loans, education and other expenses have become the most expensive items. For this reason, men's health has become a top priority, but what causes men's back pain? Men's back pain should be divided into several aspects. One is caused by excessive fatigue; the second is the problem of lumbar muscle fatigue; the third is to consider disease factors, such as kidney problems.

The most common causes of low back pain in men

1. Lumbar muscle strain

If you stand for a long time, such as a salesperson, teacher, manual laborer, etc., standing for a long time will weaken the stretching ability of the lumbar tendons and ligaments, leading to local lactic acid accumulation, and the metabolism of the lumbar muscles will be affected, which will cause low back pain. In addition, if you often carry heavy objects, like a porter, the waist is burdened, and it is easy to develop scoliosis and low back pain caused by lumbar muscle fatigue.

2. Overwork

Modern people are under great pressure in life. Although women are more independent, men are still the backbone of the family. In order to support the family, they always work very hard, work overtime and stay up late, lack of sleep, and irregular diet. Such a life can easily cause chronic fatigue. If you stay in this state for a long time, you are prone to back pain. If you do not pay attention to rest and health preservation, the symptoms of back pain will become more and more serious and will lead to the emergence of some diseases.

3. Sitting posture problem

On the contrary, some people sit for long periods of time at work. Although sitting is more comfortable than standing, if you don't pay attention to your sitting posture, you are also prone to back pain. The ancients said that there are different ways to sit and stand, but in reality, people sit in a variety of postures. Many people sit with their waists bent or leaning against a chair. This is a wrong posture. If you sit for a long time, back pain will naturally occur. If you want to relieve back pain in people who sit for a long time, it is important to learn the correct sitting posture.

4. Kidney Qi Deficiency

When men have back pain, many people may think of kidney deficiency. Generally speaking, Chinese medicine believes that men's kidney deficiency is often related to sexual life, and excessive sexual indulgence is the main cause. Therefore, if the back pain is caused by kidney deficiency, you should pay attention to kidney nourishment, eat more black kidney nourishing foods, and control the frequency of sexual life. In addition, patients with kidney deficiency have symptoms such as low libido, impotence, spermatorrhea, loss of appetite, fatigue, etc. in addition to back pain.

5. Urinary tract infection

Urinary tract infection in men can also cause back pain. Chlamydia, mycoplasma and other infections are the causes of urinary tract infection, which mainly manifests as back pain and soreness. Severe pain will also radiate to the perineum, and there will also be symptoms such as urinary pain and frequent urination. If urinary tract infection is not treated in time, it will also cause cystitis, prostatitis and other diseases, and seriously lead to infertility, so urinary tract infection should be treated in time. In addition, urinary tract stones, tuberculosis, etc. can also cause men's back pain.

6. Kidney stones

This cause of disease is often overlooked by us. Kidney stones can also cause low back pain. The low back pain caused by kidney stones is mostly located above the waist, at a higher location. When the stones are not active, it manifests as occasional pain. When the stones are active, the pain is more severe. Patients with severe pain often dare not stand.

7. Lumbar disease

Lumbar spondylosis is the most common cause of low back pain, such as lumbar disc herniation, spinal injury, lumbar spinal stenosis, etc., which can directly cause low back pain. If you suffer from these diseases, you should go to the hospital's pain department to see a doctor.

In short, don’t ignore men’s back pain. Be sure to find the cause and receive scientific and standardized treatment!
