Back pain: Mechanical low back pain. Active young people involved in sports can suffer a fracture of the pars interarticularis (pars defect) from a hyperextension injury to the spine. Fortunately, this fracture of the lumbar spine often heals if the person rests, wears a brace, avoids smoking, and refrains from sports and heavy lifting until the back is free of pain. See a spine specialist for treatment.
