What is low back pain?
Low back pain is a common problem that affects people of all ages. Causes may not always be clear, except for people with an injury or a disease. Often it can be caused by a simple muscle, ligament, or tendon strain and not usually by a more serious problem.
Fortunately, 90% of back pain gets better by 6-12 weeks. This is known as acute back pain.
At times, back pain can persist and continue for longer than expected. This is known as chronic or persistent back pain.
Should you move or rest when you are experiencing low back pain?
Avoiding painful movements can be helpful initially but it may become unhelpful in the long term. Exercise & movement can be helpful for tackling and preventing back pain as too much rest can lead to stiffness in your muscles and joints.
