Dilemma of back pain: Back pain is a very common complaint. Most back pain goes away within 6 weeks. If yours has lasted this long, you should see a back specialist and try a few weeks of rehab. It is important to keep moving and not restrict your activity too much. Of course, avoid any painful movements
