Suggestions to Help Prevent Back Pain, Backache, Lumbago, Back Trouble, Bad Back, Sciatica, Slipped Disk

Some back pain is caused by non-preventable factors (traumatic accidents, congenital defects, tumors), but the majority of low back pain is foreseeable. Suggestions on how you can prevent back pain include:
• Follow a healthy diet.
• Stay active.
• Avoid continued inactivity or bed rest.
• Warm up or stretch before exercising or other physical activities.
• Maintain proper posture.
• Wear comfortable, low-heeled footwear.
• Sleep on a mattress of medium firmness to prevent any curve in your spine.
• Lift with your knees, keep the item close to your body, and do not rotate when lifting.
• Stop smoking. Smoking prevents blood flow, resulting in oxygen and nutrient deprivation to spinal tissues.
• Have your posture professionally evaluated by your chiropractor and be sure to include a program of postural correction and regular maintenance.
