Back Pain

Back pain is one of the most common medical problems. It can range from a dull, constant ache to sudden, sharp pain. Back pain can come from an accident, a fall, lifting something heavy, aging, or a medical condition. It can last for a few days to months.

Call your health care provider if you have severe back pain and doesn't improve after three days. You should also get medical attention if you experience back pain after an injury. Treatment for back pain depends on what kind of pain you have, and what is causing it. It may include hot or cold packs, exercise, medicines, injections, and sometimes surgery.
You can do things to improve your health and lower your chance of developing long-lasting back pain.
