Common Back Pain Symptoms
Most signs of back pain are manageable, but some symptoms can indicate a more serious illness. If your back pain symptoms escalate, visit your nearest physician or one of our New Jersey back pain experts.
Based on the position and source of your back pain, you experience the following symptoms:
- Muscle aches that linger;
- Sudden sensations such as stabbing and tingling;
- An agonizing burn that radiates towards your extremities;
- Soreness and pain that worsens after lifting something, leaning, or standing up;
- Pain that subsides when laying down or resting.
Seek immediate medical care if you experience symptoms such as:
- Loss of bowel or bladder control;
- High fever;
- Pain that results from an injury, a slip, or a collision.
Constantly living with these symptoms can negatively impact your quality of life and discourage you from doing normal things that make you happy. In order to get the relief you need and to return to a discomfort-free life, schedule an appointment with a qualified doctor like Dr. Hanna. He will make an accurate diagnosis, will discuss the cause of the problem with you, and offer effective solutions.

How Do I Know If The Pain In My Back Is Serious?
When your discomfort is severe and it does not ease with rest, it is strongly recommended to see a doctor. The pain that spreads down one or both legs, especially if it stretches below the knee, might be another sign.
If your back pain triggers fatigue, tingling, or numbness of one or both legs, seeing a doctor would be a smart idea. In each patient, back pain manifests differently and it may evolve for several different reasons. Some people have severe symptoms when it comes to ruptured discs, slipped discs or nerve roots and other spine conditions and some do not feel a thing.
How is Back Pain Normally Diagnosed?
For an accurate diagnosis, a physical test is always required. Your doctor will assess your ability to stand and move, the range of motion of your body, your reflexes, and your muscles.
If your doctor believes that your condition is complex, you will be recommended other tests, including:
- X-rays
- Blood and urine samples to identify underlying conditions
- CT-Scans
- Electromyography (EMG)
How To Sleep When You Have Lower Back Pain?
Stress or pressure from poor posture, inappropriate sleeping position, and other lifestyle behaviors usually cause this pain. You should pay special attention to the way you sleep if you are already suffering from this problem. The recommendations below may help you in getting relief:
- Sleep with a pillow between your legs, on your side: the pillow will hold your pelvis, back, and hips in a better position.
- Sleep with a pillow under your abdomen, on your stomach: this posture will help you relieve the tension imposed on the area between your disks.
- Sleep on your side in the diagonal direction: curling into this position will make the gap between the vertebrae open.
Please remember that alignment is fundamental. Regardless of the position you choose, the most important part of the equation is to ensure the correct alignment of the spine.
If your back pain doesn’t seem to go away, make an appointment in advance with our board-certified, fellowship-trained back pain doctors in New Jersey – Dr. Laura Lombardi, Dr. George Hanna, Dr. Shane J. Volney, and get rid of your back pain once and for all. Interventional pain management might be a great option for you.
