Back pain typically feels like an ache, tension or stiffness in the back or neck region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>Back pain is a\ncommon complaint with up to one in six Australians affected with the\ncondition at any one time. The causes of back pain are not well\nunderstood as most people presenting with back pain do not have\nsignificant spinal damage. Instead it is thought that the pain is\nderived from the muscles, ligaments and joints. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The causes of back\nand neck pain are diverse and some examples include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Repetitive\n\theavy lifting\/manual labour\n\t<\/li><li>Sudden awkward\n\tmovement (particularly bending and twisting simultaneously)\n\t<\/li><li>Poor posture\n\t<\/li><li>Being sedentary\n\tand\/or overweight\n\t<\/li><li>Result of an\n\taccident\n\t<\/li><li>Arthritis \u2013\n\tincluding ankylosing spondylitis and osteoarthritis\n\t<\/li><li>Spinal stenosis\n\t<\/li><li>Osteoarthritis\n<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The treatment for\nback pain depends on presentation and complexity. Some back pain\nresolves without specific treatment. Other treatments involve graded\nexercise prescription and physiotherapy, multidisciplinary pain\nmanagement and sometimes, medications. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Back and neck pain and travel insurance<\/h2>\n<br \/>\n\n\n\n<p> Having back and neck pain should not stop Australians from having a great holiday, particularly as insure4less specialises in providing affordable <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insure4less.com.au\/page\/medical-conditions\/\">travel insurance for travellers with pre-existing medical<\/a> conditions.<br> <br>For your own peace of mind, you can relax in the knowledge that you have the protection of one of the world\u2019s largest insurers and medical emergency teams to support you whilst overseas if you suddenly suffer from a back\/neck pain related incident.
