Your back pain is not gone. It is outside doing push ups, waiting for you to slip up again. If your back keeps locking up on you, something is being missed, and it is usually not random bad luck. Most people treat each flare up as a separate, unrelated event, when in reality there is almost always a pattern connecting them.

In this episode, I'm going to break down the real reasons your back keeps going out again and again, and what you need to fix so it finally stops.

❓ QUESTIONS ANSWERED
Why does my back keep going out for no reason?
A back that keeps locking up is often a sign of repetitive strain from bad lifting form, a weak core, or doing an activity way out of proportion to what your body is conditioned for. Even small movements like reaching for a purse can trigger a flare if the angle puts too much force through one spinal segment, especially if that segment is already compromised from prior injury.

What is a herniated disc?
A herniated disc happens when the jelly like center of the disc, called the nucleus, pushes through the outer rings called the annulus. It only takes about nine pounds of pressure in a bad position to cause this kind of injury, which is why even everyday movements can trigger a flare if the disc is already weakened.

Can physical therapy help with recurring back pain?
Yes. A good physical therapist can spot compensations, such as a weak hip or glute that is forcing your back to work overtime, and correct them so the right muscles share the load. This kind of targeted correction often prevents the same injury from repeating itself month after month.
