Back pain always has a cause. Most patients receive poor advice that remains a barrier to recovery. They stay in pain unnecessarily. Some receive pain-numbing medication that does not stop the cause of pain.
Some are told that they must learn to live with the pain, rather than being shown why they have pain together with a roadmap of the steps to reduce it. They have not seen a back pain expert! The key to success is to understand the pain mechanism, and address the mechanism.
