Is it normal for my teenager to have back pain?
|
|
Most of the time, back pain in adolescents is idiopathic, meaning it is unknown exactly what causes it. It is hard to know exactly how common back pain in adolescents is as the research is varied. Back pain in adolescence tends to increase as children get older. In fact by age 18, it occurs at rates similar to adults.
