A new study has found that patients who walked regularly experienced fewer flare-ups of lower back pain compared to those who did not.

The study, published in the Lancet, showed that patients who walked five times a week for 30 minutes each day had longer periods without pain.

Walking was found to have a significant impact on reducing back pain and improving quality of life for patients.

The researchers suggest that walking could be a cost-effective and accessible way to manage and prevent back pain, benefiting millions of people worldwide.

The study highlights the potential of walking as a scalable solution for back pain management.
