Back/neck pain: Have you been evaluated by an osteopath, chiropractor or someone who specializes in back pain? You could also consider acupuncture and physical therapy as options. Certainly no one wants surgical intervention unless there are no other options. Prolotherapy can help to stabilize the connective tissues decrease pain and may be an option. Good Luck!
