What should I do if I have lumbar pain after sitting for a long time?

Due to the nature of their work, drivers sit all day long, so their lumbar spine cannot bear it. Is there something wrong with their lumbar spine? Some friends who work in offices also have this problem, always feeling uncomfortable in their lumbar spine. Let's explain in detail why the lumbar spine cannot bear sitting for a long time, is there something wrong, and how to treat it?

Do not do heavy physical labor or strenuous exercise. Do not sleep on a spring mattress. Be sure to avoid working or studying in the same posture for a long time, especially working or studying with your back bent for a long time. Take a 10-minute break every hour or so. You can use traction, physical therapy, infrared, and massage to treat the condition. Severe cases may require surgery.

It is recommended to do the flying swallow exercise: lie prone on the bed, lift both lower limbs alternately, lift both lower limbs at the same time, stretch and lift the upper body backward, lift both ends of the body off the bed at the same time, etc. Do the above movements more than ten times, and exercise for 30 minutes every day. The pace of life is accelerating, and more and more people are gradually losing the precious opportunity for physical exercise. In order to adapt to the needs of work, they have to maintain a fixed sitting posture for a long time and maintain an incorrect posture for too long.

The lumbar muscles and ligaments that protect the lumbar spine cannot be relaxed for a long time, the intervertebral disc lacks blood supply, and the repair energy is weak. In daily life, the intervertebral disc is squeezed, pulled and twisted from all sides, which can easily cause the intervertebral disc nucleus pulposus, fibrous annulus, and cartilage plate to gradually age. There are mainly several ways to treat the lumbar spine: drug treatment, traditional Chinese medicine treatment, external hot compress treatment, etc., but I personally think that manual bone setting and physical therapy are better, such as massage, infrared irradiation, acupuncture, and cupping. It is recommended to use several physical therapy methods together for better results. Bianstone or scraping therapy: According to the diagnosis, the corresponding positive reaction is found through manipulation and the Bianstone or scraping therapy is performed to drive away the external evil. Bloodletting, cupping or moving cupping: After the Bianstone or scraping therapy, the rash area is treated with bloodletting, cupping or moving cupping. Acupuncture and moxibustion: According to the diagnosis, the acupoints are selected, and acupuncture or moxibustion or a combination of the two is selected according to the actual situation.
