BACK PAIN
Back pain is one of the most common causes of people not going to the doctor and not working. It is one of the leading causes of disability worldwide. Most back pain can be diagnosed by preventing or relieving it. With easy home remedies and proper body mechanics, your back can be healed in a few weeks. Surgery is rarely required to cure back pain.
Symptoms
Muscle aches and back pain, burning sensation. The pain may radiate to the legs or cause pain with bending, twisting, lifting, standing or walking.
Resistance
Back pain can be relieved or its recurrence can be prevented by improving physical condition and learning and practicing proper physical mechanics.
Things to do to keep your back healthy and strong:
Exercise:
Exercise regularly in such a way that there is no pressure or trembling on the back. Exercising in this way increases the strength and endurance of the back and makes the muscles work better. Good choice for walking and swimming.
Build muscle strength and mobility. Exercise the abdominal and back muscles which strengthens the core, helping these muscles to work together like a natural corset for the back.
Weight maintenance:
Excess weight puts pressure on the back muscles. This problem is caused by being overweight which can lead to back pain.
Quit smoking:
Excessive smoking increases the risk of low back pain. Smoking every day increases this risk, so quit this habit.
Avoid movements that twist or strain the back. Use the body properly:
Stand . If you have to stand for long periods of time, place your feet on a low footstool so that some weight is removed from under the back. Alternative methods help reduce stress on the muscles.
Seating rules:
Sit comfortably on the lower back, choose a seat with armrest and swivel base. It is best to keep a pillow or rolled towel in a small area of your back that can maintain normalcy. Keep knee and buttocks level normal. Change position every half hour.
Excess weight:
Avoid heavy lifting, but use your twist if you have to lift something heavy. Keep your back straight and do not twist and just bend at the knees. Find a partner if the object is heavy or awkward.
