What is "lumbago"?
Lumbago is a term for pain in the lower back or lumbar region of the spine. It is often used to describe general discomfort, stiffness, or muscle strain in the lower back area. Unlike backache, which can refer to pain anywhere in the back, lumbago specifically targets the lower back. It can result from various factors such as bad posture, muscle overuse, injury, or conditions like arthritis. Lumbago is a common issue and typically resolves with rest, gentle stretching, and over-the-counter pain medication. However, persistent or intense lumbago may need medical attention to address underlying causes or to manage chronic pain.
