A primary reason for pain in the lower back is swelling and inflammation in the vertebrae or muscles. The muscles and ligaments in the lower back are strained or torn due to increased activity or misalignment. Additionally if you are suffering from a herniated disc, slipped disc, or bulging disc in your spine this can put pressure on your nerves.
