Hello,
Based on your description, it seems your back pain could be due to prolonged sitting and poor posture while working on the computer. This is common but can be effectively managed with the right approach.
Here are some steps you can take to relieve your pain:
1. Correct Posture: Ensure your chair and desk setup promotes a straight spine and that your screen is at eye level.
2. Stretching Exercises: Gentle stretches targeting your back and spine can help alleviate stiffness.
3. Frequent Breaks: Take short breaks every 30-45 minutes to stand, walk, and stretch.
4. Hot/Cold Therapy: Applying a hot or cold pack can reduce pain and inflammation.
If the pain persists, it may indicate a deeper issue that requires professional care. I’d recommend visiting a physiotherapist for a detailed assessment and personalized treatment plan.
At Modern Physio, we specialize in treating back pain and posture-related issues. You can book a consultation with me directly for a comprehensive evaluation and therapy.
Wishing you a speedy recovery!
