Living With Back Pain returns under new ownership
An earlier site used this address to publish back pain education from 2009 until about 2019. The site has been relaunched under new ownership, and this page explains what changed.

Many pages on the internet still link to the old Living With Back Pain pages. We kept the same addresses for the topics that people still look for, so those links lead somewhere useful instead of a dead page.
The editorial team wrote every current article again
Nothing on the current site is copied from the earlier one. We do not speak for the earlier author and we do not claim to be them. The new articles cover the same topics, such as sciatica, spinal stenosis and chronic pain, and they are written from public medical sources.
Each article names the sources behind it
Every article ends with a numbered list of sources, including national health services, orthopedic societies and peer-reviewed reviews. Statements in the text carry a number that points to the source list, so you can read the original yourself.
The site gives education and never medical advice
The articles are written by an editorial team, not by a doctor or therapist, and they do not describe any person's care. They cannot diagnose a condition or tell you what treatment to choose. A licensed clinician who knows your history can do that. Sudden loss of bladder or bowel control, numbness between the legs, new leg weakness or back pain with fever needs urgent medical care.
