Back Pain Overview

BACK PAIN

Back pain is a common complaint. Most people in the United States will experience back pain at least once in your life. Back pain is one of the most common reasons people go to the doctor or missing work.

On the plus side, you can take steps to prevent or reduce episodes of pain behind. If prevention fails, simple mechanics, home organization and good treatment often heal your back in a couple of weeks and keep long-term functional. Surgery is rarely needed to treat back pain.
