Are you looking for effective non-invasive back strain or sprain treatment in the Fullerton area? Sprains and strains are common injuries that cause back pain and restricted mobility. Although used interchangeably, each term describes an injury to a different element of the body. Sprains are injuries that involve ligaments, while strains are injuries that involve muscles or tendons. Full Range Spine & Ortho provides back strain or sprain treatment at our location in Fullerton, CA.
Back strains or sprains can occur for a variety of different reasons. All manner of trauma from falls or accidents commonly causes back strains or sprains. They are also common injuries from poor posture or lifting mechanics in the workplace. For example, lifting improperly and/or twisting while lifting can easily result in a back strain or sprain injury.
Back sprains or strains result in pain that is worse with movement, muscle cramps or spasms, decreased function and/or range of motion and swelling. Some victims may hear a popping noise at the time of injury, most common when a muscle, tendon or ligament tears completely loose from the bone.
