Manage Pain and Get Your Life Back!
The complaint of low back pain is among the most common medical problems, affecting up to 90% of Americans at some point in their lifetime. It may also be due to problems in your mid or upper back, the testicles or ovaries, or a hernia in the groin. But frequently , the exact cause of the pain cannot be found.
When you initially see your doctor , you will be asked questions about your back pain, including how ofttimes it occurs and how severe it is. Your physician will try to find out the source of your back pain and whether it is probable to speedily get better with simple measures in managing pain such as ice, painkillers (such as Tramadol), physical therapy, and correct exercises.
One single issue may not cause your pain. You may have been doing many things improperly — such as standing or lifting — for a long time . Then abruptly, one simple movement (such as reaching for something or bending from your waist) leads to the feeling of pain.
Most people with back pain get better in 4 to 6 weeks time . hence, your physician will probably not order any tests during the initial visit. However, if you have pain that has lasted for more than one month, numbness, muscle weakness, accident or injury, fever, cancer or weight loss, your physician may order imaging examination even at this initial exam.
