Factors That Increase the Risk of Back Pain and Injury


Factors you cannot control

  • Growing older
  • Being a man
  • Being pregnant. A woman's back is significantly stressed by carrying a baby.
  • Having a family history of back pain
  • Having a problem with your spine that has been present since birth (congenital)
  • Having a degenerative disease of the spine, such as osteoporosis or arthritis
