Our goal is to provide information concerning the various forms of back problems that have been identified by medical professionals and to offer you the opportunity to communicate with others concerning these disorders. Under no circumstances do we intend for the information that we provide to you to be used as a substitute for seeking direct, personal, medical care by a trained health care professional. Nor should this information be interpreted as comparable to direct attention by a health care professional. Factors specific to your personal situation and body can cause your presenting symptoms to vary from the norm. Personal variances from the prototypical individual are not uncommon.
Back problems are complex by nature and can be serious.
For this reason we urge you to contact your health care provider with any questions or concerns. Nevertheless, our goal is to provide you with current information concerning back issues.
