Lower Back Pain
Facet syndrome:
One of the most common lower back problems is called facet syndrome. It is very painful and can be debilitating. Generally the patient wakes up feeling fine in the morning then they go to rise from bed to find out they cannot move. It is difficult to stand up straight and even walk.
Some doctors call this a hot low back. Whatever you call it, it is very painful. Most likely the patient did some sort of activity the day before to injure his or her lower back and kept moving and the problem does not usually bother them as long as they are moving.
Lying in bed for several hours or sitting then exacerbates the problem. Sometimes patients will apply a heating pad and this feels very good initially but then it makes the problem worse.
