Back pain after a collision calls for an individualized assessment. General exercise or lifting tips should not replace advice based on your symptoms and examination.
1. What evaluation is appropriate for my symptoms?
2. Which activities should I modify while being evaluated?
3. How should I approach work duties and lifting?
4. Is an in-person assessment needed?
5. Would physical therapy or another referral be appropriate?
6. What changes should prompt earlier follow-up?
7. When should we review progress?
Bring your medication list and available records. Discuss each question with your treating clinician rather than starting an exercise program solely from a blog post.
