BACK PAIN: Persistent back pain after ‘manipulation’ warrants a hands-on evaluation by your doctor to determine possible causes and next-steps. Likely nothing to worry about but if you continue to have pain, your back should be examined. NExt time, I recommend leaving the ‘manipulation’ to the trained professional.
