Pain very low in your back, right above the pelvis, flaring with bending, lifting or prolonged sitting? Lumbosacral pain \u2014 pain of the lumbosacral region \u2014 is one of the most common forms of low back pain, and the modern, active approach gets very good results.<\/p>\n

What is lumbosacral pain?<\/h2>\n

It is pain localised at the junction between the lumbar spine and the sacrum (the L5\u2013S1 area) \u2014 a region under high load where the disc, facet joints and sacroiliac joints meet. It can be acute or chronic, with or without radiation into the buttock.<\/p>\n

Common symptoms<\/h2>\n

Pain low in the back, above the pelvis, worse with bending, lifting, prolonged sitting or standing, morning stiffness, sometimes radiation into the buttock and a “locking” sensation with certain movements.<\/p>\n

Common causes<\/h2>\n

Overload of the lumbosacral junction, prolonged sitting and poor posture, incorrect lifting, weak supporting muscles, pelvic imbalances and, sometimes, L5\u2013S1 disc or facet degeneration.<\/p>\n

Can it be treated without surgery?<\/h2>\n

Yes \u2014 non-specific lumbosacral pain is treated conservatively, with therapeutic exercise, manual therapy and postural education. Surgery is not an option for the common form; red flags are screened out at assessment.<\/p>\n
