How can i prevent back pain?
Regular exercise is your most potent weapon against back problems. Activity can increase your aerobic capacity, improve your overall fitness, increase the muscle tone and help shed excess pounds that stress your back. Stretching and toning your back and other supporting muscles can help reduce wear and tear on your back. It reduces your risk of injury by warming up muscles, and it also increases your long-term flexibility. Strength training can make your arms, legs and lower body stronger. In turn, your risk for falls and other injuries decreases. Strong arms, legs, and especially abdominal muscles also help relieve back strain. Always ask your doctor or physical therapist for advise before beginning an exercise program, especially if you’ve hurt your back before or you have other health problems, such as osteoporosis.
