What Is Back Pain?

Back pain is the term used to describe pain or discomfort in the upper, middle, or lower back. It can be confined to one area or spread to other areas of the body such as the hips, legs, or neck. It can arise gradually as a consequence of strain or bad posture or suddenly from an accident or injury.
