What are the cause of constant back pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Back pain: There are many possibilities. Muscular strain, ligament tear, tear of the disc, inflammation of the facet joints, a central disc herniation, or a stress fracture can cause this kind of pain. Try anti-inflammatory medications, ice and a simple low profile back brace for a few days. If the pain persists then see a spine specialist.
