WHEN TO SEEK TREATMENT

Nearly 9 out of 10 adults experience back pain at some point in their lives. Some choose to simply “live with it,” although nobody should have to do that. Here are just a few common signs you should contact Duke

• Pain. Any back pain is abnormal and should be addressed. We ask patients to report their pain level on a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 is none and 10 is excruciating. If your pain is above 1, you should contact us. 
• Distorted posture — if your body tilts to the side, for example.
• Back discomfort when you cough sneeze or laugh.
• Pain that travels either across your lower back or down your thigh, shin or foot.
• Upper body strength is noticeably diminished.
• Difficulty walking, or frequent tripping over feet.
• Difficulty transitioning from sitting to standing, or rolling over in bed.
