Blanchard Valley Pain Management
For many people, chronic low back pain originates from the space between the disc and the vertebra, which is known as the vertebral endplate. This type of pain is known as vertebrogenic pain. Of the 30 million people in the United States with chronic low back pain, one in six is likely to suffer from vertebrogenic pain.
Vertebrogenic pain patients often describe their pain as located in the middle of their lower back, and the pain gets worse during physical activity or prolonged sitting, and when bending forward/bending with lifting.
