Most back pain improves within a few weeks. But some patterns tell us the problem will not resolve by rest alone.
1. Pain lasting more than three weeks
If the pain has not eased after three weeks of normal activity, a structured assessment helps identify the driver.
2. Pain that travels into the leg
Radiating pain, tingling or numbness can indicate nerve involvement and should be checked early.
3. Morning stiffness over 30 minutes
Prolonged stiffness can point to inflammatory conditions that benefit from a targeted plan.
4. Pain that wakes you at night
Night pain deserves a proper clinical review.
5. You are avoiding everyday movement
Fear of movement slows recovery. A guided loading programme rebuilds confidence.
