Treating lower-back pain How much bed rest is too much?

Below is an instructional piece about bed rest for back injuries produced jointly by the American Board of Internal Medicine, the North American Spine Society ( of whom I recently mentioned), and Consumer Reports Health. Current guidelines recommend only up to 2 days of bed rest for the most severe back disorders, except for unstable fractures.
Soft tissue heals better with movement, just the opposite of bone.
Were you aware of the current recommendations?
