Remedies for back pain in non working generation

Back pain one of the most common problem people are facing worldwide. By large these people are nonworking generation. The most common who fall in this category are women, oldies and children. And they feel this problem generally in lower back because it gets so much in use. Lower back is the part of the spine that links the upper body and lower body. This ache in the lower back pain is due to improper muscle tone and movement.

Below are some of the remedies to cure back pain

1. Ice therapy: Put the ice in towel. Apply it on paining part for 5 to 10 minutes at a time but not more than say twenty minutes.

2. Heat therapy: Rinse a small towel in hot water and wring it to near dry. Now apply it on aching back for a minute. It is safe unlike the heating pad as it won’t burn your skin up.

3. Simple stretches: To speed healing and increase flexibility try out some simple stretches but not such an extent that the pain increases. Sit in a chair with feet flat on the floor. Now bend forward in the waist, bringing the chest slowly toward thighs. Hold on to the stretch for 15 seconds. Or try standing stretch. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart; place the hands on the small of the back. This promotes the movement in spine.

4. Keep back straight: While bending down to lift the object see to it that you don’t bend in the back but bend in knees and hips.

5. Holding tight: While carrying try to keep it close or farther you hold it the heavier it would get.

In spite of all given remedies above make a point that the posture of carrying the body is correct and that is while walking, sitting and standing. Another point which will help to relieve the back pain in non working generation would be never to sit, stand or walk relaxed because by that one may not be relaxing the muscle but would perhaps stress the back more.
