Acute lumbago: causes and treatment

In acute low back pain (abbreviated: LA), one experiences sharp and sudden pain in the lower back area. Usually the trigger is an innocuous movement performed during exercise or daily activity. Even a simple movement such as bending, turning, or straightening can give rise to low back pain. Because of the intensity of back pain, the cause of the disorder is often attributed to the occurrence of a herniated disc. However, the causes of acute low back pain are often more harmless and heal without any complications.
