Abstrakt: The article discusses strategies for dealing with back pain. A study shows that lower-back pain in older women is caused by aging joints which are strained by intense activity. Without any obvious reason, midlife back pain is also caused by osteoarthritis and weak core muscles that support the spine. Home remedies for relieving back pain include lying on one's back with a pillow under the knees, taking anti-inflammatory medication, or applying ice compresses to reduce swelling.
