Firstly its important to find the reason of your problem. It could be your low back or knee or any hamstring strain. Kindly get it checked by a doctor for the right diagnosis. If its due to back pain, your doctor can recommend you back brace or abdominal binder. You can take following precautions: Avoid forward bending, lifting weights, long hours of sitting or standing. All the best
