Definition
Pain in the back or dorsal region of the body.
Etymology
From Latin 'dorsum' (back) combined with Greek '-algia' (pain suffix), literally meaning 'back-pain,' a medical term for various forms of backache.
Kelly Says
The '-algia' suffix appears in hundreds of medical terms—neuralgia (nerve pain), myalgia (muscle pain), arthralgia (joint pain)—it's how doctors name pain anywhere in the body.
