German orthopedic doctor: These are the most important causes of back pain. To combat back pain, German physical therapist Alexander Srokowski recommended continuing to exercise.

The back should assume an erect position, taking into account regular stretching exercises, and getting up and walking a few steps from time to time. If back pain is due to a disease, drug treatment such as painkillers is used, and surgery can also be used to treat spondylolisthesis or curvature of the spine.
