Severe Back pain
I'm 33 and obese. I'm currently in a workout program for losing weight. Recently I've been getting severe back pain which never occured before. Could this be due to sudden exercising?

hi, good to hear you have opted for physical therapy to reduce your weight, but go slow with the exercise program, your muscles will not be able to take the strain of strenuous exercises, unless they are slowly trained to take the strain. please get a good trainer who understands your requirement, rather than one who follows General exercise regimens, for your pain, please give a gap for a week and begin afresh, local hot fomentation should also help
