Top Reasons for Back Pain Plus 2 Factors Affecting Women

Did you know that most back pain can be caused by musculoskeletal issues like pinched nerves, muscle or ligament sprain/strains from overuse or injury, degenerative arthritis, or bulged discs? It is important to know that taking care of your spine with regular stretching, chiropractic care, and keeping your spinal muscles strong with exercise can prevent these issues from being a factor.

However, if you're a woman… you might have 2 more factors that can make your back pain worse:

#1 Stress can deplete your magnesium levels leading to tight muscles and ligaments that are more likely to cause pain and reduces hormone precursors that makes pain more intense

#2 Hormone changes (yes you will still have hormone changes even after menopause and even if you’ve had some parts removed!) can also contribute to joint laxity and predispose you to injury. This is especially true in the week before your menstrual cycle and even MORE likely if you’re pregnant as these hormone levels are much higher during pregnancy!
