Most cases of back pain are a result of mechanical problems,
such as poor posture or improper movement that are best prevented and managed
by regular exercise and strengthening your back and abdominal muscles.
Well-established guidelines for the treatment of back pain
require very conservative management ; in most cases, no more than aspirin or
acetaminophen (Tylenol) and physical therapy.
Recent research shows that many doctors do not follow these
guidelines. Over the past decade, use of Tylenol and NSAID’s declined by about
50 percent, while prescriptions for opiates rose by more than 50 percent.
