This is more muscles related pain due to leading a sedentary lifestyle. Unfortunately the more one rests the more one will get pain and then they will rest more.
Next Steps
ask him to take breaks every 20-25 minutes. use a walker at appropriate height (elbow level) while walking to keep an upright posture. give him 2-3 pillows and arrange them in T fashion.
