Everybody experienced back pain before. Last time I had back pain, it was after moving bunch of furniture and doing it for all day. This is what I did to get rid of my back pain:
1. I Applied ice
As soon as possible. I applied ice, cold pack to my injured back (10 to 15 minutes every hour). Cold limits swelling, reduces pain, and speeds healing.
2. I did pelvic tilts
This exercise gently moves the spine and stretches the lower back:
- lie on your back with knees bent and feet flat on the floor
- slowly tighten your stomach muscles and press your lower back against floor, hold for 20 seconds (keep breathing, do not hold your breath), and slowly relax
3. I walked
I took short walks (5 to 7 minutes) on a level surface (no inclines or declines) every 2 hours.
Walk only distances you can manage without pain!
