Lower back injuries are similar to neck pain, except the aggravating positive is prolonged flexion. Ongoing back pain can be caused by muscle fatigue, chronic tension to posterior vertebra ligaments and prolonged compression to intervertebral discs. Your pelvic position while riding is significant, sitting in a tilted position increases lumbar flexion.. The long period of flexed trunk position produces aches in the cervical, thoracic or lumbar spine. Acupuncture can relieve the pain. (reference: Sean Fyfe/Sports Injury Bulletin)
