Sit straight with support to your back, avoid bending, avoid lifting or pushing heavy weights sleep on a thin and hard mattress
Keep your laptop at a comfortable distance, such that, arms and back are not stretched while doing work
Do regular hot compression of back morning and evening before sleeping for a week at least.

Hi
Most of what you are saying is probably related to your posture and how much strain your back is taking at work
You will need to adjust that to start with.
Ensure you have good footwear with a nice heel padding
Please avoid using your phone while lying down to prevent added strain on your neck
I strongly suggest physiotherapy
Do consider regular strength training on the long run
Take care.
Consult if required

For back pain relief at home, focus on an anti-inflammatory diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids found in fatty fish, antioxidants found in berries and leafy greens, and whole grains, while staying hydrated and limiting processed foods and sugars.

Dear Patient,
I understand your concern regarding persistent back pain due to prolonged sitting and laptop use. At your age (28 years), this is commonly caused by poor posture, muscle strain, or early disc irritation rather than serious spinal issues. However, neglecting it may lead to chronic problems.
Key Recommendations:
1. Posture Correction:
- Ensure your workstation is ergonomic (screen at eye level, feet flat on the ground).
- Use a lumbar support cushion.
2. Stretching & Exercises:
- Perform cat-cow stretches, child’s pose, and seated spinal twists every 2 hours.
- Strengthen core muscles with planks and pelvic tilts.
3. Lifestyle Adjustments:
- Take a 5-minute walk every hour.
- Avoid slouching or leaning forward.
4. Pain Management:
- Apply heat packs for muscle relaxation.
- Over-the-counter pain relief (e.g., Paracetamol) if needed, but avoid long-term use.
If pain persists beyond 2 weeks or radiates to legs (suggesting nerve involvement), consult a specialist. For a **personalized rehab plan**, reach me on WhatsApp at **Eight Zero Zero Nine Eight Two One Three Three Two**.
