Overcoming Lower Back Pain after COVID-19

In this episode, we are talking about COVID and its correlation with lower back pain. It’s a fairly new symptom of the Omicron variant of the virus so we’re going to start with a look at what we know about how it’s negatively affecting people.

First, we talk with a patient who never had back problems in her life until she got Omicron. She details the debilitating pain she’s been dealing with for months following her COVID diagnosis.

Then, a conversation with the expert — Spine Surgeon Dr. Colin Haines shares more on why the virus is causing these symptoms and the treatments that are helping patients overcome their lower back pain after COVID.
