Backache, also called lumbago, is one of the most widespread disease found in people. It is mild to severe pain in the lower back region. Lumbago results in difficulty in bending forward, backward or even sidewards. The problem is not restricted to older people and can also affect young generation. Females usually face this problem during the pregnancy stage. The main causes for backache are strain, strained ligaments, back-muscle injury, excess lifting of heavy objects and disc disorders.
