Individuals experiencing lower back pains may sometimes get interrupted from continuously doing their daily tasks just to soothe and relax a little from the pain. There are different pain interventions that can alleviate this condition, but if it is much more serious than a strained lumbar, further diagnosis from a spine doctor will be needed to identify the underlying cause of the pain and if surgery is deemed necessary.
Lower back sprains and strains are less serious types of pain that can be caused by sports injuries, from the improper lifting of heavy objects, sudden movements that immediately stress out the lower back muscles. They can also be caused simply from bad posture.
We can give answers to your lower back conditions at our pain management center in Hyderabad, Telangana, India, while you maintain these good spine tips at work, at home, and wherever you go.
- Have A Good Workspace
If you have to lean forward to get a better angle of your computer at work or at home, you may be unintentionally straining your spine, and over time this could change your posture and potentially cause lower back pains. Instead, design your workspace where you can sit up straight with elbows directly proportional to your desk so your wrists do not get strained from a bent typing position. Your head should also be upright and not leaning forward to not reverse the natural curvature of the spine around the neck area. Also, make use of pillows to support your back as you sit in your office chair day in and day out. Make sure to apply ergonomics wherever you need to be.
- Do Stretching Exercises
Even at work, it should not excuse you from doing stretching exercises since this also helps with your blood circulation and posture. Instead of continuously sitting long hours at work, make sure to get up every hour and do some walking as you take a break. Walking is great for the spine since it keeps the body in an erect position. Yoga helps with lower back pains, too. You can ask us for stretching exercises that are best for your lower back pains.
- Keep Fit
Exercise can only do so much since keeping fit also means watching what we feed our bodies. If exercising is too tasking because of the pain, then start with your diet and be within ideal weight limits to lessen the stress and tension on your spine and bones.
If the pain gets too much to bear, consult with us and let our doctors help you with a solution to your lower back pains for procedures, like Lumbar Epidural Steroid Injections, that can help with pain management.
