Common causes of chronic pain
Some of the most common chronic pain conditions treated at Vitality Women’s Physical Therapy include:
Lower Back Pain
Often resulting from muscle strains, herniated discs, poor posture, or degenerative conditions, lower back pain can significantly hinder daily activities. It can lead to reduced mobility, muscle spasms, and a limited range of motion, hindering daily activities and tasks.
Neck Pain
Poor posture, muscle imbalances, or injury often lead to neck pain. Neck pain can result in stiffness, headaches, and difficulty turning the head.
Sciatica
Caused by compression of the sciatic nerve, sciatica can result in sharp, shooting pain down the leg, accompanied by numbness and tingling.
Fibromyalgia
It is characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, and tender points throughout the body. It can lead to difficulty sleeping, cognitive difficulties, and heightened sensitivity to touch, impacting daily functioning and mental health.
Arthritis
Arthritis, encompassing both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, is characterized by joint inflammation, pain, and stiffness. This chronic condition can result in limited joint mobility, affecting everyday tasks like walking, gripping objects, and self-care.
Migraines and Headaches
Headaches, particularly chronic migraines and tension headaches, can severely impact daily functioning, causing intense pain, sensitivity to light and sound, and nausea.
Neuropathic Pain
Nerve pain, or neuropathic pain, stems from nerve damage or dysfunction, often due to conditions like diabetes, shingles, or trauma. Symptoms include burning, tingling, and sharp shooting pains, which can disrupt daily life and cause emotional distress.
