A member asked:
I was wondering is a balance ball supposed to cause backaches?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
That would depend on: how you are using it & what issue you may or may not have in terms of any prior or current back symptoms along with what shape you are in to begin with such as weight issues and tobacco use. You may want to talk to a physiatrist as to an exercise program if you are having any back problems to learn correct exercise routines including those that may include a balance ball.
