I'm going to have back surgery to remove two discs. I've heard different advice about restricting my activities after the operation. What's the latest on this?
My neighbor is 91 years old and planning to have a spinal fusion for chronic low back pain. They say the problem is just degeneration from age. Isn't 91 too old for this kind of surgery?
I've had back pain for the past two years. I'm seeing a new doctor who wants to take more X-rays. These will be taken while I bend and extend my back. What does this show?
I have low back pain. If I just use a brace, will it go away?
Some of my co-workers use back support belts when they lift at work. Should I use one?
Are men and women equally at risk for developing low back pain?
Can what I do at work affect my chances of having low back pain?
If I have a spine fusion in the lower part of my back, will I still be able to bend over?
I know it's important to bend my knees when I lift heavy things. But I've had surgery on both of my knees, and they really hurt when they bend too far. How can I protect my knees and my back when I lift?
My lower back hurts. Should I go to work?
