Common Symptoms Caused by Injuries to the Lumbar Spine

The last part of this three-piece series is about the final section of the spine, the lumbar region.

This section of the spine is located below the cervical and thoracic sections and is made up of five vertebrae known as the L1, L2, L3, L4, and L5.

Injuries and subluxations to the spine can be severe but are not typically life-threatening.

Early treatment is important to the prognosis of lumbar spine injuries because these five vertebrae contain precious nerves and spinal cord tissue that control communication between the brain and the legs.

Therefore, damage to the spine subsequently has the largest effects on the hips, groin, and lower abdominal muscles.

List of Symptoms Caused by Subluxation of the Thoracic Spine

The second section of this three-piece series has to do with thoracic spine subluxation. 

The thoracic spine is made up of twelve vertebrae, known as T1 through T12. It is located between the cervical and lumbar levels, right in the middle of the spine at your mid-back.

These twelve vertebrae and nerves connect directly to the rib cage, thus allowing easy communication with the central parts of the body. 

If you are experiencing back pain, you should see a back pain chiropractor as soon as possible.
