Lower Back Pain While Standing Up - Improving Posture


If there is pain in your lower back, then there are very good chances of something being wrong with your posture. Some of the cause for this improper posture could be slouching on the chair while sitting, slouching while standing or walking, etc. We would, in this article, look at some of the ways to cure this problem arising out of postures and standing up for long hours.

It is very important that one stands properly or is erect while walking. Lots of stretching exercises are also recommended for this problem. Try stretching exercises whenever you get the time or the space. Just ensure that you are on an empty stomach before going with these exercises.

These exercises will help you get rid of the unwanted fat and toxins that you might have built up in your body due to improper posture that might have added up to the pain. These stretches might not come naturally to you but it is important that you get used to them. If you are not able to stretch properly or feel some discomfort and pain, then it is advisable to stop these stretching exercises and try something else.

The lower back is the most active part of our body and it is one portion which carries and bears a lot of weight. Therefore it is only normal that you get pain in that region more than often. Sitting or continuous standing creates lot of pressure on this part of the body and that finally results in pain and aches. Therefore, it is very important that you try to relax your body especially your lower back as much as possible.

Lying down for some time during breaks or eight to nine hours of sound sleeping will definitely help a lot in curing this problem. Try to give some support to your back whenever you are sleeping or sitting with a cushion with some other soft pads.
