Severe lower back pain is a common ailment, and along with the pain comes anxiety and stress. It is not always caused, as some people believe, by spinal conditions such as arthritis or herniated discs. Yet many doctors focus on those causes and can not effectively treat the pain when the diagnosis of the cause is wrong. Doctors need to focus off the spinal structures and create a better approach to treat this often debilitating and painful condition.
