I think it depends on the type of damage done to your back, and how serious it is. If you pull a muscle in your back, it might take a few weeks to heal. If you sprain your back though (in other words, if you damage a muscle ligament), it can take months to heal properly. If you break a bone in your back, that can be extremely serious and take years to heal; but if you damage your spinal cord in the process, that can potentially be permanent. Were you thinking of a particular type of back trouble?

Pete has pretty much covered this question 🙂 It depends on the type of injury and how well-attuned your body is to recovering 🙂

Lol! Have to comment on this one! I had a back operation( scoliosis(curvy spine) correction and I was back in school after 3 weeks- though only part time. Pete is right, it depends on the damage(or in my case the op) that you have done to it!
Pete commented on :
Spacenut’s much more of an expert on this than me 🙂 3 weeks seems like an incredible time to recover!
spacenut commented on :
They say back to school part time in 6weeks, I managed it in 3! Full time by 6 weeks! Anyway 8 months exactly today!!

My friend had scoliosis and was in the second stage (The C stage) and was soon going into the second stage which cannot be altered! But she went to see a chiropractor and got it sorted out 😀 she’s fine now!
