Back pain is now a common problem due to poor posture, sedentary life, stress, and inflammatory foods. While modern treatments often give only temporary relief, daily external application of 20 ml castor oil on the back (along with a plastic-wrapped cotton cloth and hot water bag) can deeply heal inflammation, muscle tension, and spinal stiffness. A belly castor oil pack with 20 ml oil is also essential to reduce internal inflammation and support the spine. With consistent application, a clean diet (avoiding six whites), simple lifestyle habits, and patience, even chronic back pain can be naturally reversed without medication or surgery.

1. INTRODUCTION


Back pain has quietly become one of the most common health problems in India.

Whether it's a dull ache in the lower back, shooting pain down the leg, or stiffness in the shoulders, almost every adult will experience back pain at some point.


While painkillers, physiotherapy, and surgeries are widely offered, they often fail to provide permanent relief because they don’t heal the root cause.

This guide offers a gentle, traditional method using castor oil — a natural anti-inflammatory remedy long used in Indian households.

2. WHAT IS BACK PAIN?


Back pain is discomfort felt in any part of the back — upper, middle, or lower.

It may come from muscles, bones, discs, nerves, or internal inflammation.


Common types include:


Upper back pain – shoulder blade area, often due to posture


Middle back pain – along the spine, often stiffness


Lower back pain – most common, linked to long sitting


Tailbone pain – coccyx soreness due to sitting on hard surfaces


Sciatica – nerve pain going down the leg from lower back


Disc-related pain – caused by disc bulge or herniation


Muscle strain – lifting heavy objects or awkward movements


Inflammatory pain – linked to autoimmune issues like ankylosing spondylitis

3. WHY IS BACK PAIN SO COMMON TODAY?


Back pain wasn’t this common in past generations.

Here’s why it's increasing now:


Long hours of sitting (desks, bikes, phones)


Soft mattresses and poor sleeping posture


Lack of physical activity and core strength


High inflammation diet (refined foods, toor dal, sugar)


Mental stress and tension in spine muscles


Overuse of smartphones and poor neck posture


Suppressing pain with medicines without healing

4. WHAT IS CASTOR OIL?


Castor oil is a thick, pale yellow oil extracted from the seeds of the castor plant (Ricinus communis).

It has been used for centuries in India for healing swelling, pain, constipation, and infections.


The main healing ingredient is ricinoleic acid, which penetrates deeply into tissues and reduces inflammation, relaxes muscles, and improves lymph flow.


Always prepare your own castor oil oil or buy traditionally extracted genuine castor oil.
