back pain

Back and Abdominal Pain

Back and abdominal pain is a typical mix of symptoms experienced by many patients. Lower back pain is the most common type of serious back ache. The nerves of the lower back are involved in providing feeling and function to the abdominal region. It is no surprise that conditions which affect the lumbar spine might also affect the abdomen.

Causes of Back and Abdominal Pain

Back and Abdominal Pain Combination back pain conditions between these 2 areas are often experienced alternately or simultaneously. Dysfunction in any of the lumbar structures can possibly affect other anatomical regions, such as the buttocks, legs, feet or abdomen. Sometimes the cause of the abdominal pain is a direct result of a lower back pain syndrome, while other times, the pain is due to a sympathetic response. Oxygen deprivation of the spinal nerve roots can cause regional pain in many areas of the lower body. This syndrome is almost always caused by a psychosomatic process and can continue for many years if not correctly diagnosed.

Psychosomatic Back and Abdominal Pain

The abdomen is a typical location for many assorted psychologically induced pain syndromes to occur. Gastrointestinal distresses of all types are symptoms often associated with psychosomatic pain. Pain in the lower abdomen and genitals is a classic anatomical response for many patients with deeply rooted psychological issues. Of course, psychosomatic lower back pain is an epidemic condition which continues to grow each year. Many patients experience a variety of pain syndromes at once or in rotation. These back pain substitute symptoms are all part of the distractive process used by the subconscious mind to protect the individual from repressed emotional issues.

Warning on Back and Abdominal Pain

Pain in the abdomen can be the sign of a serious health condition. All unexplained abdominal pain conditions should be evaluated by a qualified medical doctor, immediately. Organ dysfunction, cancer, appendicitis, gall bladder conditions and sexual diseases can all cause abdominal pain. Some of these problems can be life threatening and no patient should ignore serious internal abdominal pain. Luckily, most abdominal pain conditions are not serious and usually turn out to be some form of common digestive tract sensitivity.

Recommendation on Back and Abdominal Pain

Besides suffering from horrible and debilitating lower back pain for 18 years, I also suffered from a chronic series of abdominal conditions throughout my entire life. Actually my gastrointestinal problems pre-dated my back pain by many years, beginning around the age of 10. I continued to have an unpredictable and often painful stomach for over 24 years. After I finally figured out how to cure my chronic back pain, I simply applied the same techniques to cure my abdominal pain conditions, as well. The results were equally excellent in alleviating the abdominal pain as they had been in curing my back ache. I actually used the same knowledge therapy program to go on to also cure my knee pain and wrist pain in the months after defeating back pain. I am still amazed at the close connection between the back and the abdominal region. But, then again, they share a common link… THE MIND. It is most often the cause of symptoms in both locations. Once a patient is aware of this fact, achieving a cure is the easy part…
