BACK PAIN THERAPY

BACK PAIN THERAPY : This involve using physical means and methods for the treatment of pains on the lower and upper back. The spine is a column of bones (vertebrae) held together by muscles, tendons and ligaments and cushioned by shock-absorbing disks. A problem in any part of your spine can cause back pain.

A common cause of back pain is injury to a muscle (strain) or ligament (sprain). Strains and sprains can occur for many reasons, including improper lifting, poor posture and lack of regular exercise. Being overweight might increase your risk of strains and sprains affecting your back. Back pain can also result from arthritis because of age-related changes in your spine, vertebral fracture or ruptured disk and also from certain infections.

Kidney infection (pyelonephritis), Kidney stones, Obesity, Osteoarthritis (disease causing the breakdown of joints), Osteomyelitis (a bone infection), Osteoporosis, Poor posture, Rheumatoid arthritis (inflammatory joint disease), etc.

How to Prevent Back Pain

Once the pain goes away, take measures to reduce your risk of future lower back pain episodes.

CORRECT POSTURES FOR WORK

Choose good posture and follow your physical therapist’s instructions on how to move to ensure proper back biomechanics. Incorporate back-friendly practices into your daily life. For example, use a chair that has good back support at work and at home.

If you stand for long periods at work, wear flat shoes with good arch support and get a box or step about 6 inches high to rest one foot on from time to time.

RIGHT LIFTING POSTURES TO AVOID BACK PAIN

Avoid lifting objects that weigh more than 50 pounds. When you lift heavy objects, lift from the knees and you should contract your abdominal muscles but keep your spine straight, and don’t twist your trunk. As you lift, hold the object close to your body.

Finally, if you smoke, stop. Smoking accelerates spinal degeneration and contributes to the development of back pain. If you would like guidance or support as you work to quit smoking you ought to talk to your health care provider because they will definitely professional counsel or advise for you.
