Back pain in the morning ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Facet arthritis: A very common and overlooked cause of morning back pain and stiffness is facet joint arthritis. It is important to know if this is the cause because it has a very simple and effective treatment. To find out if this is causing your pain, see a well qualified pain medicine physician who can do simple interventional pain procedures.
