What Is Back Pain?

What Is Back Pain?

The spine is made up of 4 regions, the cervical (neck), thoracic (mid back), lumbar (low back) and sacral (base of spine). The bones that make up the spinal column are called vertebrae, with discs in between. Ligaments, muscles and tendons surround the spine to provide support and stability, and to control movement. So back pain problems can be complex.
