Back pain that persists beyond three months crosses into the territory of pain, a condition that carries a different clinical and psychological dimension compared to acute injury-related pain. back pain is one of the most prevalent health complaints globally, affecting working-age adults in particular and accounting for a significant proportion of sick days and reduced workplace productivity. The causes are varied and often interrelated. Degenerative disc changes, facet joint arthritis, sacroiliac joint dysfunction, postural imbalances, core muscle weakness, and in some cases central sensitisation, where the nervous system becomes hypersensitive to pain signals, all contribute to the pain experience. Treating back pain effectively requires a thorough understanding of all these factors and a multi-pronged approach. Physiotherapy focused on core stability and movement retraining is foundational. Pain interventions such as nerve blocks, medial branch blocks, or radiofrequency denervation of facet joints can provide targeted and sometimes long-lasting relief. Psychological support through cognitive behavioural therapy has a well-documented role in managing the anxiety, catastrophising, and avoidance behaviour that often accompany pain. Medications are used as adjuncts rather than primary treatment. Ergonomic adjustments at work and home, sleep optimisation, and weight management round out the comprehensive care approach. Surgery is considered only when a clear, structural, surgically correctable cause has been identified and other treatments have failed.
