Back Pain Treatment in Johor Bahru

Sakit Belakang

Back pain is one of the leading causes of disability worldwide and is extremely common among Malaysian workers, especially those in manufacturing, construction, and desk-based jobs. Most back pain is mechanical in nature and responds well to proper treatment, but some cases may indicate disc problems or nerve compression requiring further investigation.

Symptoms of Back Pain

Dull aching pain in the lower back
Stiffness and reduced range of motion
Sharp or shooting pain radiating to legs
Muscle spasms and tightness
Pain worse after sitting or standing prolonged periods
Difficulty bending or lifting

⚠️ When to See a Doctor

See a doctor if back pain persists beyond 2 weeks, radiates down one or both legs, is accompanied by numbness or weakness, follows an injury, or is associated with bladder or bowel changes. Seek immediate care if you experience sudden weakness in both legs.
