Locating The Source Of Back Pain

Amir Mahajer, Interventional Spine Specialist at Baptist Health Neuroscience Center, explains where the pain comes from and what we can do about it. He says low back pain basically starts at the bottom of the ribs and goes all the way down to the bottom of your gluteal fold. He highlights you can also have radiating pain or sciatica and that is from the nerve root, which gets pinched and then that pain can radiate down the leg.
