Rest: Give your lower back a break by avoiding activities that worsen the pain. But avoid prolonged bed rest, as it can lead to muscle weakness.
Apply heat or ice: Applying a heating pad or ice pack to the affected area can help reduce pain and inflammation. Use them for 15-20 minutes at a time, with a cloth or towel between the skin and the hot/cold source.
Gentle stretches and exercises: Specific exercises and stretches can help improve flexibility and strength in your lower back. Consult a healthcare professional or physical therapist for guidance.
Over-the-counter pain relievers: Non-prescription pain medications, like ibuprofen or acetaminophen, may provide temporary relief. Always follow the recommended dosage and consult a doctor if pain persists.
Maintain good posture: Pay attention to your posture when sitting, standing, and lifting to reduce stress on your lower back.
Use proper body mechanics: When lifting objects, bend at your knees, not your waist, and use your legs to lift, not your back.
Supportive footwear: Comfortable and supportive shoes can help maintain proper alignment and reduce lower back strain.
Sleep on a comfortable mattress: A firm but not too hard mattress that supports the natural curve of your spine can help reduce back pain.
Weight management: Excess weight can strain the lower back. Maintaining a healthy weight can alleviate some pain
