What do you know about back pain?

When a person is feeling back pain, the whole of his or her back, from the top of his or her neck down to the waist, is usually affected with severe pains, which most time would be as if the rib is broken.
Have you ever had back pain? Share your story.
Yes, I have ever had back pain, which was not a severe one. The cause of my back pain was my sitting posture on an iron seat, which happened when I was in school. I sat down in an uncomfortable seat for a long time. The next day, as I went to school, I stood up for long hours, which caused me back pain. For a good three days, I wasn't myself when the back pain started, which I thought was a minor something, and rushed and took paracetamol to relieve the pain.
