Symptoms of Back Pain
Symptoms of back pain can range from aching to shooting, burning, and stabbing. Does pain down your leg worsen with body movements such as twisting, lifting, walking, standing, or bending?
Call Our Doctor Immediately,
- If the condition does not improve with at-home treatment after two weeks, it does not improve with rest, or worsens.
- If the pain radiates down one or both legs and causes numbness, tingling in the legs, or weakness.
- If you notice an unexplained weight loss, call us.
- If it causes new bowel or bladder issues.
- If you have a fever.
- If the pain is due to a fall or an injury to the back.
If you don't exercise or lose weight, if you are obese, have a disease like osteoarthritis or arthritis, do improper lifting, are a smoker, or have a tendency toward depression and anxiety, and are 30-plus years of age, you are at risk for back pain.
Keep Your Back Free from Pain
Regular low-impact aerobic exercises like walking, bicycling, and swimming can keep your back healthy. Maintain an expected average weight for your age and height. Don't smoke. Use your body appropriately by standing, sitting, walking, lifting, and using excellent posture.

Pain is never normal and is never a side effect of the aging process. Short-term pain is expected sometimes. Long-term, chronic pain is not normal and is due to an underlying cause. If you treat the underlying condition, your pain will significantly decrease or be eliminated.
