Lower Back Pain Worse in Morning - Some Exercising Tips


Lower back pain can be worse especially if it occurs early in the morning when you get up from the bed. There are lots of people, who though find this bearable, are unable to do their daily activities with relative ease and comfort. We would, in this article, look at some of the treatments for this lower back pain.

As soon as you get this lower back pain in the morning, it is advisable that you relax and refrain from any kind of physical activity. Physical activities will only strain you more and therefore worsen the already existing problem. These physical activities should be brought down at least for a couple of days or till the pain subsidizes. Such rest will help in calming your muscles and also will bring down the risk of inflammation.

Application of ice packs will also be another good idea to get rid of this problem. The icing on the back should be done for two to three days and then it should be followed up by some massages with a warm cloth on the affected area.

These treatments will take some time for showing its effect and in the mean time if you are not able to bear the pain and suffering, then you can take some pain killers or over the counter medicines. These medicines would only give temporary relief from the pain and will not completely cure the problem.

There are also some sleeping positions that one should keep in mind when he or she is going through this problem. If the person sleeps on his or her back, then it would be recommended to keep a pillow underneath as that will give some support to the back and also reduce the strain on it.

One has to be slightly patient with these exercises as it would take something like five to ten days for getting completely cured.
