Back pain is quite a common phenomenon and generally occurs due to wrong posture or sudden movements. Each one of us is prone to back pain since the lower portion of our back supports a large portion of our body weight. The stability and the fitness of the lower back is dependant on the strength and the position of our vertebral bodies and the inter-vertebral disks.

Back pain is often a short-term phenomenon and can be rectified by exercises or painkillers. However, back pains can also become chronic and recur by even a small movement.

Back Pain is generally not associated with an injury or illness and may even go away without any medication. Painkillers, such as Aspirin, Ibuprofen and acetaminophen, can prove to be quite useful in relieving back pain in initial stages. The application of a cold pack on the affected area in the first 24-48 hours is also effective in reducing the pain. Other most commonly available remedies for back pain include a mixture made from Comfrey Root and special massage oils.

People suffering from back pain should avoid sudden turning or bending movements. Bed rest is not recommended for people suffering from back pain. Instead, one should continue with his/her normal activities, while taking precaution of avoiding sudden movements. Exercises, such as short walks, stretching and swimming, are recommended in case of moderate pain. Since back pain is generally not related to an injury, limited medical treatment is available.
