[00:00:00]If your back hurts, please don't just rest and wait. Here is why. Hello everyone, this is Dr. Gurpreet, MSK and ortho physiotherapist. Most people think rest is the answer for back pain.

[00:00:13]Sometimes it is, but there are three specific signs that tell you your back needs a physiotherapist, not just rest.

[00:00:22]Sign number one, pain that shoots down your leg. If your back pain is traveling to your buttock, your thigh, and all the way to your foot, that is not a muscle simple muscle strain. There is a nerve involvement.

[00:00:37]That could be sciatica or disc compression, and rest alone cannot fix it. In fact, it can make it worse. Sign number two, the pain that lasts more than 2 weeks.

[00:00:50]Your body should start healing within a week or two. If it hasn't, there is a structural reason. A disc issue, a joint problem, or a postural imbalance, and that needs to be properly diagnosed and treated, and not just waited. Sign number three, you wake up stiff every single morning, and it takes you 30 minutes to just feel you normal. Please hear me, that is not just getting older.

[00:01:17]That is inflammation. That is your spine is telling something is wrong, and a good physiotherapist can find exactly what it is. If even one of these sounds like you, don't wait any longer. Book your consultation with me at NXT Physiotech.
