I assume you are talking about a web browser (because you didn't say) and I assume you are using Safari (because you didn't say).

If that's the case, go to the menubar and click on "View," then "Customize Toolbar," then drag the default set of commands at the bottom into your toolbar. This will restore the default buttons, including the forward and back buttons.

In FF, you'll go to View - Toolbars - Customize

Either drag the back/forward buttons back onto the navigation bar or click on the Restore defaults button.
