Etymology

The term 'lumbago' originates from the Latin word 'lumbaginem', meaning 'loin' or 'lower back'. Its use can be traced back to the 16th century when physicians began to define various types of back pain more specifically. Over time, lumbago has become a general term used to describe lower back pain, encompassing a wide range of conditions and causes. The appreciation for distinct back issues grew with the advancement of medical knowledge, and lumbago now represents not only a symptom but also a recognized condition that impacts many people today.
