Your back
The back is a sturdy structure, made out of resistant bone and powerful
muscle. Back pain is most often the result not of an illness of the
spine, but rather a dysfunction in the back muscles and the influence
of certain risk factors. The best way to prevent and to treat back
pain is by exercising and keeping physically fit, following the norms
for posture hygiene, avoiding bed rest and having a positive mental
attitude towards pain. Different situations, such as age or pregnancy,
determine what risk factors may be present as well as the principle
measures to take in order to prevent or avoid back pain.
