Back Pain Hospital

"About 80% of adults experience low back pain at some point in their lifetimes. It affects women and men equally. Back pain can range from mild, annoying ache to persistent, dull, severe, disabling pain. It can interfere with normal functioning and quality of life. Acute back pain could last for a few days to a few weeks, which tends to resolve on its own with self-care. Chronic back pain may persist for 12 weeks or longer. There are many causes of back pain, and sometimes it can occur after a specific movement, such as bending and lifting. Back pain can be described as a pulling or burning sensation that tends to be localized within the source of back injury or strain.
