According to a recent article on the Daily Express website the majority of people suffering from back pain who go on to visit their GP then proceed to ignore the advice given.
These are UK figures, but with people being people wherever they are there is no reason to suppose the figures are much different anywhere else.
This surprised me personally, as back pain, as I know only too well, can be not only excruciating but can lead to other problems, including mental as well as physical. And if you feel bad enough to consult your doctor in the first place why would you then not at least consider any advice given?
As my dear old Grandmother would say "There's nowt so queer as folk."
