THE BEST SLEEPING POSITION TO ALLEVIATE BACK PAIN
Sleep on your side with your knees bent and with a pillow between them. This not only will relieve pressure on your back muscles, it will also prevent you from overstretching your hip muscles during the night. Other Back Pain Relief Tips:
It is important that you stand up straight with your head up, your shoulders back, and your weight resting equally on both feet. Always avoid standing in one position for longer than a few minutes. If you can’t avoid standing in one position, try shifting your weight from foot to foot. This will prevent any single area from being subjected to excessive stress. You can also try putting one foot up on a stack of books or a stool to keep your back from arching. And always try to avoid wearing shoes that have high heels, because they can place unnecessary strain on your lower back.
When you pick something up, you should squat in front of the object, keeping your back straight while holding the object close to your body. You should then rise slowly by straightening your knees. This allows your legs to do most of the work.
When carrying something relatively heavy, such as luggage, always try to keep the load balanced with equal weight in each hand. You should never twist at the waist when carrying a heavy object— rather move your feet instead.
