Your back

The back is a sturdy structure, made out of resistant bone and powerful muscle. Back pain is most often the result not of an illness of the spine, but rather a dysfunction in the back muscles and the influence of certain risk factors. The best way to prevent and to treat back pain is by exercising and keeping physically fit, following the norms for posture hygiene, avoiding bed rest and having a positive mental attitude towards pain. Different situations, such as age or pregnancy, determine what risk factors may be present as well as the principle measures to take in order to prevent or avoid back pain.
