7 daily habits that cause lower back pain that you need to fix right away

About 80% of people worldwide experience back pain at an early age and back pain will follow them into old age. BrightSide has compiled a series of daily back pain habits that you should fix right away.

1. Wear tight skirts and high heels: A pencil skirt can make you seductive, but it can also cause back pain. Tight skirts limit movement at the hips, straining the spine. Similarly, when you wear high heels, too, the habit of high heels causes your legs to drop unnaturally, causing the lower back muscles to move. To avoid back pain, choose comfortable skirts and shoes with soles less than 2 cm high. 2. Regularly drink carbonated soft drinks: This daily routine can lead to kidney stones and cause severe lower back pain. Carbonated beverages can also lead to air trapped in the digestive system and put pressure on the spine. If you have back pain after drinking carbonated water, you should try drinking more water. 3. Stress, anxiety: When your body releases stress hormones, it causes muscles to instinctively tighten. Tension will lead to pain in your neck, shoulders, and back. Studies have shown that relaxation can effectively improve back pain. 4. Using inappropriate sleeping pillows: Sleeping pillows too high make you feel comfortable, but also potentially causing back pain. Most pillows put your head in an unnatural position, which puts pressure on your neck and spine, causing pain and poor sleep. 5. Wash dishes in the wrong position: Bending over when washing dishes can put pressure on the lower back, causing the muscles in this area to stretch.When you maintain this position for a few minutes, you may experience frequent back pain. To avoid straining your lower back, place one leg on a small chair. 6. Regularly take the stairs: Although taking the stairs is considered a healthy habit, this is not the exercise method to maintain the best shape if you are suffering from low back pain. People with knee or back pain should consult their doctor before exercising by climbing stairs. 7. Reading in bed: The habit of reading a few pages on the bed before bed can lead to stiff shoulders and back. Sitting with your back in bed reading a book can strain your spine and lower back muscles, leading to soreness. Photo: BS. Invite readers to follow the video “Homework helps improve physique”.
