When your lower back is giving you a world of pain, the worst thing you can do is lie down and wait indefinitely for it to get better. More than 1-2 days of bed rest has actually been found to slow improvement! 😱 For many people, back pain improves or disappears within 3 to 6 weeks if treated effectively.
So, what can you do?
🚿 Maintain your routines
☀️ Stay gently active
❄️ Apply hot and cold compresses and topical rubs
🧘♀️ Breathe! Distract yourself and listen to calming music
💊 Use over-the-counter painkillers and anti-inflammatories
