Dr. Wang recalls ways for women to prevent back pain.
Dr. Wang:
Back pain is very common and statistically, 90% of all people will have an episode of back pain that’s disabling in their lifetime. I think the best thing to do is stay healthy. Don’t get overweight, keep your muscles as strong as possible, and stay healthy.
