  3. INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION For some, it’s proving difficult to maintain fitness motivation or to quit snacking out of boredom. With bad habits catching up and few other ways to deal with pain and frustration, chances are your lower back pain has made a strong comeback during this lockdown. It’s more important now than ever to have a concrete action plan to relieve lower back pain. 3

  4. BACK PAIN AND QUARANTINE LIVES Most of our lives look very different now that we are quarantined due to the COVID-19 pandemic. If you used to be involved in sports or physical activities, those have probably stopped With little to do and nowhere to go, your options to relieve back pain may feel limited. It’s difficult to schedule a therapeutic massage or engage in past times that might previously have helped deal with episodes of pain. We are seeing a trend of low back pain and hip tightness resurfacing in our newly quarantined lives. This will likely be a function of a couple things: first of all, we are moving much less than before 4

  5. DIAGNOSIS A big thing you can do to minimize your back pain during these difficult times is to keep moving. Stay active. This doesn’t mean you have to be running 1/2 marathons every day. Listen to your body, and tailor your activities to your capabilities. Here are some ideas for things to help you overcome this during quarantine 5

  6. TIPS 1 Take Short Breaks From Sitting Muscles like the hip flexors get tighter and tighter, while your glutes, which should cooperate with the hip flexors in maintaining a neutral tilt of the pelvis, get weaker 6

  7. TIPS 2 Move or Exercise a Few Minutes a Day Even if you can only handle a small selection of exercises, it would do your body good to go through them at least once a day, or a few times a week (for longer sessions)

  8. TIPS 3 Stretch Selectively Stretching can be both a good thing and a bad thing, just like exercising. Depending on the cause of your pain, some stretches may serve to bring relief, while others can make the pain worse. Speak with your doctor or spine specialist about a shortlist of stretches to help relieve pressure on the spine. 8

  9. TIPS 4 Use Back Support When Sitting Back support can be useful when we cannot remind ourselves to sit up straight and brace our core. Consider purchasing a work chair that lets you lean back while offering mid-back support. 9

  10. TIPS 5 Address Your Eating Habits Consider re-introducing some healthier eating habits and cut down on your snacking. The temporary indulgence might help keep you sane and reduce the pounds you have put up since lockdown started 10

  11. TIPS 6 Limit Bed Rest A little bed rest does the body well, especially if you’ve been hurt recently. But too much bed rest coupled with poor sleeping positions can make lower back pain even worse. This should be practised along with proper back pain treatment.

  12. CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS Lower back pain affects roughly 80% of the world population, and given our current mobility restrictions, it’s hard to avoid being sedentary, which often makes the pain worse. Nonetheless, these tips can help you seek both immediate and long-term relief. If possible, consult your spine or pain specialist for more information. 12
