What Causes Lower Back Pain?
Lower back pain often stems from:
- Bulging or herniated discs
- Muscle strain or ligament sprains
- Sciatic nerve compression
- Poor posture from desk work
- Heavy lifting or repetitive motion
- Degenerative disc disease or spinal stenosis
The pain may feel dull, stabbing, or radiate down the legs, especially with sciatica.
How Do Back Braces Help?
A high-quality back brace supports your lumbar spine, relieves pressure on discs and nerves, and encourages proper posture. It works by:
- Limiting harmful movements (bending/twisting)
- Compressing the lower back muscles to reduce inflammation
- Offering lumbar stabilization to reduce nerve irritation
- Reducing fatigue during work or recovery
Whether you’re a nurse, warehouse worker, construction laborer, or office professional, a back brace helps you stay on your feet, pain-free.
