Back pain is generally divided into two categories, acute and chronic, with more research underway about neuropathic or nerve pain. Depending the type of pain you are experiencing, treatment can range from simple exercises and topical treatments to intensive rehabilitative treatment and surgery.

Types of Back Pain

Acute back pain is defined as pain that lasts anywhere from three to six months.due to strained muscles or ligament sprains. It can occur due to improper lifting or sleep position, poor sitting or standing posture, sudden and strenuous activity, sports injuries, bending forward too long, and carrying heavy objects.
