How Can severe Back Pain Be Treated?
I have a friend that has been treated for back pain for a few years. Nothing has helped. She was sent to a specialist and is sending her for very special scan. He told her what he thought is was and we could not remember the name. He observed that her chest is sinking into her body frame and putting pressure on her spine. He had told her that all the pressure from the pushing inward of her chest is causing her the pain. Were just trying to remember the name of the condition....
