How to avoid and deal with back pain

Backache

Backache has become one of the most pervasive of all ailments on a worldwide basis. This is a pity since backache that has not been caused by single impact trauma is largely preventable, as it is the result of ignorance.

Backache has been given status as a watchword for scammer, since it is so difficult to disprove that some people have used it as an excuse for time off work, when they were really quite fit. This is a shame, since it tarnishes all true sufferers of back pain with the slur of malingering.

However, backache is a common problem that affects people of all ages and backgrounds. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including poor posture, injury, or underlying medical conditions. In this short book, we will explore the causes, symptoms, and treatments of backache in general. We will also discuss ways to prevent back pain and maintain good spinal health.

From exercises to stretches and from home remedies to professional treatments, this book will help you to understand your back pain and take the necessary steps to alleviate it.

How Back Pain Starts

Back ache may start from apparently very insignificant origins and it may come from significant trauma. People ought to be made to be aware that small things could lead to years of backache and maybe early retirement.

In my instance, my wife and I were visiting a friend of hers and she offered to give me a massage. My wife agreed because of their friendship and because her friend had studied as a masseuse ten years beforehand.

The massage went well and she kept asking me whether she was hurting me. She was not, so I said no. She stood on the back of my thighs and asked again. I said no. She said that she had never massaged a white man before and that my muscles were heavier than she was used to.

So, she started striking the back of my left thigh with her heel. Again she asked if it hurt. It did not. Anyway, she completed the massage and we all had a nice evening. The next day, my left thigh was sore and I had to limp a little. This lasted a couple of days and then disappeared.

A week later, I could hardly walk, limping badly on my left leg. That lasted a month and then my lowest disc slipped out of position. I am still suffering from a slipped or herniated disc as a result of a month of bad posture which was the result of a free massage.

That is how easily it can happen. You do something daft like wearing tight shoes; you acquire a limp and the limp so alters your stance that it throws your back out. If I had known then what I know now, I would not have limped about for a month, I would have rested up.

Take my instance as a significant warning, you can acquire permanent back ache from the stupidest of reasons. A friend of mine has had back pain for thirty years and he remembers the day it happened. He was in the bathroom and twisted to his right to reach for the toilet paper.
