Back Pain That Won’t Go Away with Rest or Stretching? Here’s What It’s Really Telling You

By Deborah Westergaard, MD | Pain Experts | Dallas–Plano

Why Your Back Pain That Won’t Go Away—Even with Rest and Stretching

You’ve tried being patient. You’ve cut back on your workouts, canceled tennis, skipped golf, doubled down on yoga, or spent hours foam-rolling. But the truth is, back pain that won’t go away with rest or stretching isn’t just tight muscles or a temporary flare-up.

It’s often a sign that something deeper is going on:

• Instability in the spine

• Micro-injuries to the joints, ligaments, or discs

• Underlying inflammation or early degeneration

• Weakness of the multifidus muscle or core stabilizers

Most high-functioning professionals don’t have time to be sidelined by vague answers or “wait and see” advice. And the longer this kind of pain is ignored or masked, the more likely it can spiral into chronic dysfunction.

Your Body Is Talking. Now Let’s Listen—with Precision

At Pain Experts, we use advanced diagnostics—not guesswork—to identify the root cause of your pain. If back pain that doesn’t respond to rest or stretching is disrupting your life, the solution isn’t more downtime. It’s targeted, non-surgical regeneration.

Here’s what we may offer:

• Ultrasound or fluoroscopic diagnostic injections to pinpoint the exact pain generator

• Orthobiologic treatments like PRP or bone marrow concentrate to stimulate healing at the source

• Multifidus muscle support with platelet-poor plasma or focused shockwave to restore spinal stability

• No opioids, no surgery, and no band-aid solutions—just real structural repair

We’re not here to “manage” your pain. We’re here to resolve it—strategically, and with intention.

Back Pain That Won’t Go Away with Rest or Stretching? It’s Time to Take the Next Step

If you’ve been told to stretch it out… or rest it off… but you’re still hurting, let’s talk. Because once surgery is done, it can’t be undone.

We see patients in Dallas and Plano. Consultations are thorough, strategic, and tailored.
