Back pain is so common that most of us needn’t run to the doctor for help. Conservative pain management includes; brief rest, cold packs & pain relievers.
Bed rest may be appropriate for 1 or 2 days, but should be limited. During this time, you should not perform tasks that may place strain on your back, such as walking, house cleaning, sitting & lifting. Your may try some gentle stretches to keep your back muscles flexible.
Prevention is the most important management technique & even plays a prominent role in rehabilitating people with difficult to treat pain. Prevention includes; exercise, eating a well-balanced diet, stopping smoking, weight loss & good body mechanics (such as posture, proper lifting techniques & workspace ergonomics).
When these methods fail, more intensive treatment is needed. This occurs in approximately 5% of people with acute back pain.
