👇👇UN News feature on WHO’s first guideline on chronic primary low back pain Do’s and don’ts for tackling chronic back pain | UN News news.un.org/en/story/2023/…
Low back pain affects 1 in 13 people. That’s 619 million people, of all ages, who may benefit from treatment. But so many are missing out on effective care. Our new guideline outlines the best way to manage chronic low back pain in adults, including older people, according to…

Being physically active goes a long way 💪in addressing chronic low back pain. No one exercise is superior - select an exercise type that is accessible in your community and that you enjoy bit.ly/487j2L8
