Acute lower back pain is often caused by a sudden injury to the muscles and ligaments supporting the back. The pain may be caused by muscle spasms or a strain or tear in the muscles and ligaments.
Whether we are doing an operational job or an office job, we are consistently using certain parts of our muscles. Therefore, if the muscle is consistently activated without sufficient rest time for it to recover, we will start to feel weakness in our back and pain towards the end. It is usually a long time before the pain even become noticeable.
Harmful, prolonged posture creates extra stress on our spine & muscle. It causes the muscles and joints to break down as they are forced to stay in an incorrect position (overwork). When left untreated, the body will continue to be stuck in this poor posture and often, with time, it leads to humpback and tilting in the body.
Prolonged inactivity might increase back pain as the back becomes weak, stiff, and deconditioned. As the pain increases, our fitness level reduces further which will eventually lead to fatigue, weakness, injury. It may also cause degenerative changes such as osteoporosis, arthritis, premature aging.
Avoid working too hard, too long and if we really need to, take breaks in-between work. Make sure to eat healthy food to refuel the right nutrients to the body. Most importantly, get proper sleep for recharging.
We should avoid sedentary habits. Regular exercise to maintain fitness using a combine different type of exercises such as weights, cardio, and stretching.
Making sure the work station is ergonomically friendly maintaining the straight and neutral posture. Adjust places you spend most of your time in order to support the neutral position such as work station, desk, car seat, and bed.
