Why does some back pain go away in a day or two… while other pain lingers for weeks or keeps coming back?

In this episode of Ask the Chiropractor, Dr. Brant Hulsebus breaks down the difference between temporary back pain and underlying spinal problems. Learn why some injuries heal quickly on their own, while others require more attention to resolve.

You’ll also hear why recurring back pain often follows a predictable cycle, how long-term stress and degeneration affect recovery, and why past results don’t always match what you experience today.

If your back pain keeps coming back — or takes longer to improve than you expected — this episode will help you understand what may really be going on.

A lot of people assume their pain is “just a tight muscle.” But sometimes that tight muscle is actually protecting something deeper underneath.

In this episode of Ask the Chiropractor, Dr. Brant Hulsebus explains how to tell the difference between true muscle tightness and a spinal joint problem. Learn why muscles tighten in the first place, when stretching and massage really help, and when recurring tightness is actually a clue that your spine is not moving properly.

If you stretch all the time, feel tight in the same spot, or only get temporary relief before the pain comes right back, this episode will help you understand what may really be going on.

“I didn’t do anything… I was being careful.”

If you’ve ever said that about your back pain at work, you’re not alone.

In this episode of Ask the Chiropractor, Dr. Brant Hulsebus explains why back pain at work is rarely caused by one bad movement. Instead, it’s usually the result of repetitive stress building up over time — even from light or “safe” activities.

Learn how sitting, bending, standing, and twisting throughout the day create cumulative strain, why pain often shows up after work instead of during it, and what chiropractors look for when evaluating work-related back pain.

If your back tightens up during the day or hurts more after work, this episode will help you understand what’s really going on — and why it’s not random.
