Lower back pain is one of the most prevalent health issues, affecting a wide demographic globally. It’s a leading cause of disability, often impacting work productivity and daily activities. This type of pain can vary in intensity, duration, and cause, making it a complex condition to address. Below are some of the diverse origins of lower back pain.
Disc Problems: Issues like herniated or bulging discs can press on nerves, causing pain.
Degenerative Disc Disease: Age-related deterioration of spinal discs can lead to chronic pain.
Spinal Stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal can compress nerves, leading to pain and numbness.
Often resulting from heavy lifting, sudden movements, or prolonged poor posture, strains and sprains can cause acute or chronic back pain.
Conditions like arthritis or spondylitis can cause inflammation in the spine and surrounding tissues, leading to discomfort.
Abnormal curvature of the spine, like scoliosis, or weakening of bones due to osteoporosis can contribute to back pain.
Factors such as obesity, sedentary lifestyle, and poor physical fitness can exacerbate the risk of developing lower back pain.
The Impact of Lower Back Pain: Beyond physical discomfort, lower back pain can profoundly impact mental health, leading to issues like anxiety and depression due to chronic discomfort and limited mobility. It can also affect sleep quality, further impacting overall health and well-being.

Treatment of lumbar degenerative disc disease-associated radicular pain with culture-expanded autologous mesenchymal stem cells: a pilot study on safety and efficacy
This study reports on the safety and efficacy findings from a registry based proof of concept study using a percutaneous intradiscal injection of cultured MSCs for the management of DDD with associated radicular symptoms.
This is a systematic review and metaanalysis of the effectiveness of PRP and MSCs injections in managing low back and lower extremity pain.
This study describes the results of a case series evaluating the use of platelet lysate (PL) epidural injections for the treatment of lumbar radicular pain as an alternative to corticosteroids.
The aim of this study was to provide an overview of Prolotherapy and PRP applications in the spine and present a 5 patient case series of PRP injections involving the lumbar, thoracic, and cervical spine.
This study was done to evaluate the efficacy of PRP via interlaminar epidural route in treatment of pain in patients with prolapsed inter vertebral disc.
This study explores the use of this cell-based biologic for treating protruding disc herniation and/or intervertebral disc degeneration is a promising therapeutic strategy, due to their known regenerative, immuno-modulatory and anti- inflammatory properties.
