Dublin 2 & Dublin 7
If you’ve got back pain, stiffness, or an ache, it’s very tempting to think that it’s nothing and that it will go away on its own.
Or, you might pass it off as having just pulled it again , or that it’s just a “ache” or a bit of stiffness that “everyone” your age suffers from…
There’s no obvious reason why it happened – but it doesn’t seem to be shifting and its been there a good while now
If that’s happening to you, you’re not alone – and we hear this type of thing all the time. In fact, long term back pain is one of THE most common problems that we see at Sports Physio Ireland.

Low back pain can have various causes, including muscle strains, ligament sprains, herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, or sometimes, underlying conditions like arthritis or osteoporosis.
Diagnosis typically involves a physical examination by a healthcare professional to assess range of motion, strength, and any signs of nerve involvement. Imaging tests like X-rays, MRI, or CT scans may be ordered to identify specific issues.
Treatment depends on the cause and severity but often involves a combination of rest, pain management (e.g., medication or injections), physical therapy, exercises to strengthen the back and core muscles, and sometimes, surgery for severe cases.
Recovery time varies based on the cause and individual factors. Acute cases might improve within a few days or weeks with proper care, while chronic issues might require ongoing management and take longer to alleviate.
While rest is essential in the acute phase, prolonged bed rest isn't recommended. Gradual return to normal activities and gentle exercises, as advised by a healthcare professional, can often help with recovery and prevent stiffness.
Maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise to strengthen core muscles, maintaining good posture, using proper body mechanics during lifting, and avoiding prolonged sitting or standing can help reduce the risk of low back pain.
It's advisable to see a physiotherapist if the pain is severe, persistent, or worsens over time, if it's accompanied by weakness or numbness in the legs, or if it follows an injury or trauma.
In many cases, low back pain can be managed effectively, allowing individuals to lead normal lives. However, some chronic conditions may require ongoing management to control symptoms and prevent flare-ups.
Yes, exercises focusing on strengthening core muscles, stretching, and improving flexibility can often alleviate low back pain. Your healthcare provider or physiotherapist can recommend specific exercises tailored to your condition.
Yes, using ergonomic chairs, adjusting desk height, maintaining proper posture while sitting, taking breaks to stretch, and lifting objects correctly can significantly reduce strain on the lower back during work.
Please note that these FAQs provide general information and should not replace personalised advice from a qualified healthcare professional. It is important to consult with a trusted physiotherapist to assess your individual case and determine the most suitable treatment plan for your back pain.
