select date_add(curdate(),interval - anyIntgegerValue day);
Or you can DATE_SUB() from MySQL.

Or you can use the following syntax −
select curdate() - interval anyIntgegerValue day;
Here is the example of all syntaxes shown above to select last few days.

Here is the output −
+------------------------------------+ | date_sub(curdate(),interval 6 day) | +------------------------------------+ | 2018-11-20 | +------------------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
