Lumbar Spinal Pain
Using the power of innovative science and modern technology, Dr SW Clinic can help you live your best pain-free life without the need for invasive surgery.
Lumbar spinal pain, often referred to as lower back pain or lumbar back pain, is a common condition characterised by discomfort or pain in the region of the lower back, specifically the lumbar spine.
The lumbar spine consists of five vertebrae (L1-L5) and the surrounding structures, including muscles, ligaments, discs, and nerves. Lumbar spinal pain can vary in severity, duration, and underlying causes.
Early intervention and appropriate treatment can help manage symptoms and improve outcomes.
At Dr SW Clinics, we can treat a range of pain conditions using Regenerative Medicine and pain-relieving injections. If you are tired of living with pain and looking for a non-surgical intervention, then Dr SW Clinics could help you get back to your optimal quality of life.

FAQ's
- Muscle Strain: One of the most common causes of lumbar spinal pain is muscle strain or overuse. This can result from lifting heavy objects, sudden movements, or poor posture.
- Lumbar Disc Problems: Issues with the intervertebral discs in the lumbar spine, such as herniated discs or degenerative disc disease, can cause pain when they press on nearby nerves.
- Arthritis: Conditions like osteoarthritis or ankylosing spondylitis can lead to lumbar spinal pain due to inflammation and degeneration of the spinal joints.
- Spinal Stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal (spinal stenosis) can put pressure on the spinal cord or nerves, resulting in pain, numbness, or weakness in the lower back and legs.
- Scoliosis: Abnormal curvature of the spine, such as scoliosis, can contribute to lower back pain in some cases.
- Injuries: Trauma from accidents or falls can cause lumbar spine injuries, leading to pain and potential damage to the spinal structures.
- Infections or Tumors: In rare cases, infections or tumors within the lumbar spine can cause pain and require medical intervention.
- Dull or sharp pain in the lower back, which may be localized or radiate into the buttocks or legs.

Depending on the joint issue you present with, there may be a couple of ways to diagnose your pain and thereby find you a lasting solution.
Firstly, you will have a telephone consultation with one of our highly trained patient advisors. This patient advisor will ask you a series of pre-assessment questions to better understand your personal needs.
You will then be invited for a consultation with one of our leading experts. To better gain an understanding of the problem, the Consultant may suggest you receive an x-ray or an MRI.
What is an x-ray?
A diagnostic test that can help identify what issues are causing the pain.
What is an MRI?
A diagnostic test using a magnetic field and radio waves for a detailed image of both joint and soft tissue.
What is an ultrasound?
Typically a handheld device that provides an on the spot image of the soft tissue.
Once we’ve received the results of your diagnostic tests, our team will be able to advise you on next best steps to get you pain free.
