This top-to-bottom guide gives an overview of spinal anatomy and the potential problems that can cause pain. Understanding your spine's anatomy and inner workings can help you better manage neck or back pain. Your spine is mostly comprised of 3 general regions:
1. The cervical spine contains 7 vertebral bones that run from the base of the skull down through your neck. This region of the spine has a natural inward curve (toward the front of the body), called a lordotic curve. It supports the head above and is relatively mobile, which also makes it more prone to injury. 2. The thoracic spine contains 12 vertebral bones, with the top 10 solidly connected to the rib cage and the bottom 2 connected to floating ribs.

Pain Associated with The Sciatic Nerve Which Runs from The Lower Back, Down the Back of The Legs to The Feet. Pain and numbness run from the lower back or buttocks and down the back of the leg. Sciatica can affect both sides of the body or just one side.
Causes - Don’t be fooled by the term, “sciatica” most often does not involve damage to the sciatic nerve. Rather, the pattern of pain in the back of the leg is most often caused by irritation of the spinal nerves.
