Cure?: There is no cure for chronic back pain- otherwise it's not chronic. You are probably being unrealistic in your goal of wanting to be cured but if you are looking to get better, don't smoke, lose weight to your ideal body weight, and start flexibility exercises to maintain posture and core strength. Keep a positive attitude and take control of your health. Exercise regularly.

Osteopathic treatmnt: Even chronic pain can be completely cured in some cases.I recently had a patient in my osteopathic manipulation pain practice w/ back pain for 30 years.Despite much md & chiropractic treatment over the years, the cause was missed.The patient's pain was cured in my office in under 30 min.A good history & physical, incl an osteopathic hands-on exam can often find the cause leading to complete cure.
