[Back Pain] If Your Back Hurts and Your Legs Feel Numb, What to Check First

  • Back pain can occur for various reasons, ranging from muscle strain, disc and nerve irritation, and conditions around the spine, to internal medicine, urological, and gynecological issues.
  • In particular, when pain radiates to the buttocks and legs, or is accompanied by numbness, reduced sensation, or weakness, medical consultation is needed rather than dismissing it as simple fatigue.
  • It is common to experience a heavy sensation in the lower back on days spent sitting for long hours, or to find it difficult to straighten your back after cleaning, childcare, or working out.

[Traffic Accident Aftereffects] If neck and lower back pain worsens a few days after the accident

  • After a traffic accident, neck, shoulder, and lower back pain, headaches, dizziness, and fatigue may become more pronounced the next day or a few days later than at first.
  • However, just because symptoms are felt later does not mean they can all be assumed to be mild muscle pain.
  • It is not uncommon for people to feel "I think I'm okay" at the time of the accident due to tension, only to experience a stiff neck after returning home, or a heavy ache in the lower back and trouble sleeping a few days later.
