Any suggestions for how to get rid of this terrible back pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Conservative first: Conservative treatment is the first step. A combination of core muscle strengthening, intermittent and as needed use of anti-inflammatory medications and maintaining an ideal body weight is usually effective at managing back pain. If this is unsuccessful, i would recommend seeing a spine specialist.
