Some people have back pain that just never stops hurting. It can make almost every activity difficult and is called chronic back pain syndrome. A syndrome is a group of symptoms that appear at the same time and indicate a problem exists. When you have chronic back pain syndrome, it means you have pain even after it seems everything has healed.
The medical community is doing a lot of current research in this area. If you have no physical reason for the pain then what is causing it? Well, the theory is your psychological state of mind may be contributing to your pain. If you live with constant stress and anxiety, it can cause your muscles to tighten and reduce blood flow for example. Dealing with the problem usually involves exercise and counseling. There’s really nothing physical the doctor can order for treatment. This is a greatly oversimplified explanation, but that’s chronic back syndrome in a nutshell.
