Suffering from chronic back pain? Nature may help you, shows study

Suffering from chronic back pain? Nature may help you, shows study

If you are suffering from chronic back pain, a walk in the woods can help you better manage the condition, according to a study on Tuesday.

The study, published in The Journal of Pain, showed that being time in or around nature can provide people suffering from chronic lower back pain with a degree of escapism that helps them better manage their physical discomfort.

In a first-of-its-kind experiment, researchers from the University of Plymouth, UK, asked 10 people experiencing chronic lower back pain, in some cases for almost 40 years, about the role nature plays in any coping strategies they employ to help manage their condition.

They found that people who were able to get out in nature said it enabled them to connect with others on a social level, whereas they might otherwise spend the majority of their time indoors and isolated.

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, who is currently leading the all-party Indian parliamentary delegation in Brazil, has said that the upcoming visit to the United States will be a crucial opportunity to counter misinformation and competing narratives surrounding Operation Sindoor.

His remarks come amid ongoing assertions by US President Donald Trump that his administration helped broker the ceasefire understanding between India and Pakistan -- claims New Delhi firmly denies.

According to Indian officials, it was Pakistan that reached out to India with a request to halt military action following the Pahalgam terror attack, not the other way around.

Tharoor underlined the importance of setting the record straight during the delegation's final leg of international outreach, which will take them to Washington.
