Whether it's a sprain, a dull ache or burning sciatic pain that moves down your leg, most of us will suffer back pain at some point. In many cases, it's a short-term problem, caused by a strain affecting the muscles, tendons or ligaments. But around nine million people in England live with back pain, according to the charity Arthritis Research UK.It is increasingly common, mainly due to our sedentary lifestyles, says Sammy Margo, a physiotherapist based in North . 'People used to get back pain from doing things – now they experience it from not doing things,' she says.'It affects the working-from-home people who no longer commute but who sit down all day; people who no longer go out for a paper but read it on their phones; or those who have their food shopping delivered.
