How to relieve back pain? Four methods are most effective

In today's society, men have to face greater pressure and work harder in their daily lives. They are also most likely to suffer from diseases such as low back pain. So, how can we relieve low back pain?

1. Sleep on your side.

Sleeping on your side is the most common sleeping position. Putting a small pillow between your knees can help your back maintain a good posture. If you must sleep on your back, try putting a small pillow under your knees. Be sure not to sleep on your stomach, as this will aggravate back pain.

2. Correct sitting posture.

When working at a computer, place the keyboard or monitor closer to your body so that you don't have to lean forward while working. Keep your elbows at your sides when operating the keyboard. Adjust the screen height so that it is level with your eyes or slightly lower. Remember to get up and move around from time to time, do some stretching exercises, or at least change your sitting posture. If you need to work at a desk for a long time, it is best to choose a chair with an upright back, adjustable seat height, and armrests. You can also put a support such as a cushion at the waist. Putting a small stool under your feet when sitting can help relieve back pain.

3. Correct your driving posture.

Long-distance driving can easily cause back pain. You can move your seat forward so that you don't have to lean forward to reach the steering wheel when driving; put a support under your waist; get out of the car every hour and move around.

4. Switch feet and stand.

Standing for a long time puts more pressure on the waist. It is recommended to put one foot on a small stool or other object for support, and then change feet frequently, which will help reduce the burden on the waist. Wearing thick-soled shoes or standing on a thick rubber mat can also help.
