The holidays are coming very soon and have a tendency to sneak up on us. There will be presents to wrap, there will be gifts to buy and there will be big holiday meals to stuff ourselves with. But there is one thing left to consider for many of us more than others. Many people suffer from back pain around the stressful holidays.

This is more common than you may think. And the culprit may have been one of a number of things. For example, all those special holiday meals (and desserts) you enjoy. Clearly, the holidays are a special time not just for sharing with loved ones - but packing on a few extra pounds. And adding just a little extra weight can be enough to flare-up old back pain or be the straw that breaks the camel's back to create 'brand new' back pain.

Add in all the stress the holidays inevitably bring to many of us, and many cases of back pain either begin or get worse. What can you do when this happens?
