Hi,u can lie down on the floor , definitely maintains back curvature. Use Ergonomic chair,back supporting chair. Every 20-30 mins take break and do some back movement's or walk for a minute then u can continue your work in between. If u t overweight,reduce a bit .

Yea you can ...  Sit for no longer than 40 min at a stretch .if back starts husting earlier then that's your body's limit. Sit with back support . Maintain a good posture.
