Back pain happens when something in your back gets hurt or stressed. Imagine your back is like a backpack that carries all the weight of your body. If it's too heavy, or if you carry it wrong, it hurts. Sometimes even sitting for too long can cause this kind of ache.
Examples
- A kid carrying a heavy backpack all day might get a sore back.
- An old man who walks slowly may feel pain when he stands up after sitting for hours.
- A dancer stretches her legs but doesn't warm up, causing her lower back to ache.
