When your back pain will not go away

At three years post-pregnancy, almost 20 percent of women with pregnancy-related back pain symptoms continue to report persistent pain. If your pain lasts for more than six months after giving birth, you should visit a chiropractor or other back specialist. For more long-lasting back pain, the cause is often situational, such as poor posture, that started during pregnancy and was never corrected.
