See below: There are many potential causes of lumbago or low back pain. The most common causes are related to strain or injury to the muscles, joints, or discs of the lower spine. While a "cure" often depends on the actual cause, prevention can be obtained by maintaining a healthy weight, good flexibility, and a strong core. See your physician if you have pain greater than 2 weeks.
