Lower back pain refers specifically to discomfort in the lumbar region. It is a leading cause of disability and often recurs in adults.
Pain localised to lower spine
Stiffness in back and hips
Shooting pain down the leg (sciatica)
Difficulty standing or walking
Pain worse after sitting for long periods
If you are suffering from any of these symptoms, you may be suffering from arthritis. Please speak with your GP to find out more.
Medical cannabis may help ease lower back pain by reducing nerve sensitivity, relaxing tight muscles, and improving sleep.
