A Closer Look At

By Jarrett Kruse

Right side back pain most often accompanies a back injury to that area, although occasionally right back pain can indicate another condition. Sometimes back pain is referred to or from another part of the body. Causes of right back pain may also be related to overuse. to Right back pain symptoms can include sharp, burning or dull pain or pain that radiates down the arm or leg. Leg pain is commonly sciatica, which can be triggered by back problems. Neck injury can cause neck pain but also back pain and pain that radiates down the arm. Right or left back pain can be caused by injury or a problem with an internal organ. For left or right back pain therapy is available in many forms, to offer back pain relief.

Pain that favors one side or the other can originate in the back and radiate to the painful area. A slipped or bulging disc, for example, may put pressure on the side of the back where the bulge is. A number of factors can contribute to pain on the right side, including any of these ailments that are affecting the right side:

• Herniated discs or ruptured discs. These do not happen symmetrically, so a bulge on the right side of the back may cause pain there.
• Pinched nerve. Cartilage or bone can compress an nerve on one side or the other and cause corresponding pain
• Muscle strain. When we strain our muscles, it’s usually on one side or the other. A muscle injury on the right side will cause corresponding pain.
• Sciatica. Pain in the lower right back and down the leg may be a symptom of irritation of the sciatic nerve. Frequently there is a corresponding back injury.
• Tumor. A spinal tumor on the right side causes right back pain
• Internal organs. Pain from a right kidney or lung can be referred to the back, indicating  a tumor or other problem.
