Research Notes on Back Pain Symptoms


The symptoms of back pain include muscle spasms, cramping, and stiffness.1 You may also experience pain that develops quickly in the back and buttocks.2 If your back pain is nerve-related, you may have feelings of numbness or weakness in the foot or lower leg.1

Fast Facts:

  • Pain that is the result of diseases that affect the spine may cause a fever and sensitivity of the spine to pressure.2
  • Back pain may cause an inability to stand straight without spasms.1
  • You should contact your health care provider immediately if you have a dull pain in one area of your spine, pain that increases when you cough, or incontinence.2
