Chiropractic and Acupuncture Services Sports Medicine If you've ever groaned, "Oh my aching back!", you are not alone. Back pain is one of the most common medical problems, affecting 8 out of 10 people at some point during their lives. Mehmet Oz, M.D., better known as Dr. Oz, believes chiropractors can help 80 percent of people with back pain. Back pain can range from a dull, constant ache to a sudden, sharp pain. Acute back pain comes on suddenly and usually lasts from a few days to a few weeks. A Consumer Reports survey determined chiropractic outperforms other alternative therapies for back pain. Back pain is called chronic if it lasts for more than three months. Most back pain goes away on its own, though it may take awhile. If your back pain is severe or doesn't improve after three days, you should call your health care provider
