If lower back pain makes walking difficult, it could be due to spinal issues like stenosis. It's important to understand the cause and explore treatment options with a healthcare provider.
Lower back pain that makes walking hard might be caused by a condition called spinal stenosis. This happens when the spaces in the spine get too narrow, which can press on nerves and cause pain or weakness.
What to Do:
Always talk to a healthcare provider to figure out the best plan for you. They can help decide what treatments might help and if any tests are needed to understand your back pain better.
