Chronic Back Pain
Chronic back pain is a persistent and often debilitating condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It is a complex condition, characterised by persistent pain, disability, and reduced quality of life. It is a common reason for healthcare visits and frequently leads to disability and decreased quality of life. Although the exact cause of chronic back pain is not known, it is thought to be the result of a combination of factors, such as age, genetics, lifestyle, and underlying medical conditions. Treatment for chronic back pain typically involves medications, exercise, physical therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy, and in some cases, surgery. These approaches aim to reduce pain, improve functioning, and reduce disability associated with chronic back pain.
