You should see a doctor if your back pain lasts longer than a few weeks, is severe, or is accompanied by symptoms like fever, numbness, or weakness in the legs. Proper treatment is necessary if the pain follows an accident or injury.
Yes, it can if you're not careful. Exercises that involve heavy lifting or high impact can put extra stress on your spine and make the condition worse. However, gentle exercises like walking, swimming, or stretching can actually help relieve pressure on your disc and strengthen the muscles around it....

Yes, poor posture can definitely cause neck pain over time. When you slouch or hunch forward, it puts extra stress on your neck and shoulder muscles. This can lead to stiffness, pain, and even headaches. To prevent this, make sure you sit up straight, keep your computer screen at eye level, and take regular breaks to stretch if you sit for long periods. Using a supportive pillow while sleeping can also help.
