Ever read an MRI report for your lower back and felt overwhelmed? 😟 Don’t panic! Sometimes, those findings sound scarier than they really are—and they might not even be the cause of your pain.

For example, a recent study showed that changes in the lower back weren’t always linked to serious problems. 📚 This is why it’s so important to look at the big picture: your symptoms, physical exam, and imaging together.

The good news? Conservative care, like chiropractic treatment, can often help you feel better without jumping to extreme solutions. 🙌
