Smoking isn't just bad for your Lungs!
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery reports on a study that finds less lower back pain in non-smokers and previous smokers versus current smokers.
Smokers suffering from spinal disorders and related back pain reported greater discomfort than those who stopped smoking during an 8 month treatment period. Patients who had never smoked and prior smokers reported significantly less back pain than current smokers and those who had quit smoking during their care.
