For people who suffer from back pain, whether it's lower back pain or upper back pain, it is important to keep an accurate record of pain to help doctors give you the best treatment. MedHelp's free back Pain Tracker helps users keep track of the location, frequency, intensity and type of back pain on a visual map of the body.
You can also keep a pain journal or pain diary detailing duration of pain and possible causes (triggers). Track your medications and treatments, including acetaminophen, NSAIDs, analgesics, acupuncture, anti-inflammatories, antidepressants, corticosteroids (e.g. prednisone), anticonvulsants, and trigger point injections. This information may reveal a pattern that will help you and your doctor identify a successful back pain treatment plan.
