Back pain untreated
My husband and I are married for a month now and I see that he suffers from severe back pain but resists treatment. He told me that he has been having pain for the past few years, which crops up more often now with added responsibilities. Even riding a bike for a few minutes can cause the pain to aggravate. He is unable to sleep at night.
