Since at least 1990, and likely prior, lower back pain is the leading cause of years lived with disability worldwide. According to the\u00a0Global Burden of Disease Study 2017, roughly 7.5% of the world\u2019s population experiences some level of lower back pain.<\/p>\n
The study defined lower back pain as, \u201cpain in the area on the posterior aspect of the body from the lower margin of the twelfth ribs to the lower gluteal folds with or without pain referred into one or both lower limbs that lasts for at least one day.\u201d<\/p>\n
It can be caused by a number of factors, including work-related injuries. For some suffering patients, the pain comes and goes. <\/p>\n
However, for many others, lower back pain is chronic in nature and continues for weeks or months on end. In severe cases, the pain never goes away at all.<\/p>\n
A growing number of patients suffering from chronic lower back pain are turning to cannabis for relief, including via inhaled consumption methods. <\/p>\n
