A big source of pain in back pain is when those nerve Roots as they're called they're little bundles okay bundles of nerves are sometimes called fices sometimes called nerve Roots the nomenclature kind of depends on where you are in the nervous system but I'll call them nerve Roots or bundles of nerves those bundles of nerves are sometimes impinged on they're physically pressed on by say a bulging what's also called a herniated disc the discs can sometimes bulge out from the side of the spine a little bit too much okay Maybe by compression from the overlying vertebrae maybe from some inflammation we'll talk about the various sources today and often times the source of back pain or neck pain or even pain in the pelvic region is because of a compression of the nerve roots that are going into and out of the spine
