Strenghten your back. It's weak. I will suggest lying face down on the floor. Lift your upper body and lower body off the ground so only your mid-section is touching the floor. Go up and down about 24 times a day.(2 sets of 12). You can add weights by lifting 2 - 5 dumbells in each hand.\nDo it 5 times a week.\n\nAlso do some crunches. Your stomach and back go hand in hand.

I've had back problems before. You've probably been told to change your mattress, or buy a firm pillow. I did all of those the thing that worked for me was working out my lower back and also stretching my lower  back out. This helped me. \n\nTo stretch you lower back, sit on the floor. Bring your feet inwards like you're trying to touch your stomach with your feet. (your leg is still on the ground) The soles of your feet must be touching. Know lean forward as far as you can go. It helps if someones pushes you from the back and keep you in that position for thirty second. \n\nIf that doesn't help, change your lifesyle, sit up straiht and buy insoles.\n\nWhen all else fails, see a doctor. They are the true specialist. Hope that your back gets better.

Well here is something that you can do right at home or when visiting someone:\n\nDo not sit in couches, always sit in firm chairs supporting the lumbar area with a pillow. This will help you keep your waist and lower back in the proper position.\n\n\nI'm not sure about the best medication or about the vinegar.

Try applying a heating pad to the area.\nIf that doesn't help, then you have no other alternative,than to see a doctor of osteopathy.(D.O.)     They specialize in bones.\nIt is possible you may have a slipped disc. The weight of pregnancy or during labor could have caused this.\n\nI know you hate seeing doctor's, so try the heating pad and see if that helps.\n\nYou MAY be doing excersizes that are not lower back friendly.  That would certainly aggrivate it.  I hope you have a lisenced trainer that's working with you.  If you DO have one, well, it's not working.\n\nThere are certain excersizes just for back pain.  Usually it's lower back pain, due to weak lower back muscles.\nIs that in fact what you're working on, in the gym?\n\nIf you absolutly refuse to see a doctor, consider an icy/hot patch and some tylenol 500mg.  \n\nI doubt that it's due to weak lower back muscles, since you carried a baby's weight around with you for months.  It could also be sciatica.  The sciatic nerve could have been aggrivated at ANY time.\n\nI hope this helps and that you feel better soon.

(Congrats by the way)\n1. wear "sensible shoes"(don't you hate that word sensible? - LOL)\n2.roll a towel or place a pillow behind the small of your back when sitting. Sit on firm furniture.\n3.Put your feet up.\n4.Place a heating pad on low or medium behind your back for a while.\n5.Soak in the tub ro relax those muscles.\n6.Watch your posture. Try to stand up straight. Your ears should be level with your shoulders.\n7. Have your hubby gentely massage your back while you are lying on your side.\n8. Tell your OBGYN about your pain on your next visit.\n9. Remember, this too, shall pass!!!! Be good to yourself and your little wee one!

You know, it is difficult to know if this is a result of the epidural or not. What does your physician say about it?\n\nChiropractic has good success with low back pain. Be sure to see a reputable chiropractor if you decide to do so.\n\nYou could try yoga or back stretching exercises, as well. Maybe a massage therapist?

if you have a pain that lasts more than a couple of days, go see a doctor, because it could be more dangerous than you think. but if you are able to move around and it just hurts when you sit in a certain position or sit for to long, try a back patch. they work pretty well. also try the cold/hot. try a cold patch then a hot patch and continue to alter it. also try taking hot showers and letting the water roll down your back. you are also try sleeping on your side instead on your back, and then again you can try sleeping on the floor for a few nights. if you don't like sleeping on the floor, get a piece of wood (old door) and place between your mattress and spring, to give you extra support. try to take it easy for a while. it better to take care of it now than later.

This could actually be referred pain.Pain resulting from an underlying cause elsewhere.\nBest things to do to try to alleviate these pains(after a brief but thorough warm up) are neck rolling front to back and reverse,clasp something up high and gently and slowly support your own weight while stretching your back.Exhale slightly every time you stretch a little more.Straddle stretch while turning one side then the other reaching for your toes with the opposite hand.Sit on the floor with your legs spread,slowly lean forward then to either side.NEVER bounce when you stretch as this activates the myotatic reflex and can tighten the tear the muscle.\nTry taking hot baths and ibuprofen(not Tylenol) as an anti inflammatory.

If the 3 rolls aren't huge....exercise, exercise, exercise.  I have found that stretching exercises are the easiest and most effective with quick results.  Yoga exercises are great.   Make sure not to push too far though at the beginning.   Take hot salt (1/2 hr) bath soaks  after exercising and push through the stiffness the next couple of days to carry on.   Once the initial muscle stiffness is out of the way, the rest is a breeze.   Good luck.

Try one of those Buckwheat pillows.  It helps keep everything aligned in your spine while you sleep.  Been over 5 years I've used one, and have NOT woken up to a backache since.

Bulging lumbar discs are usually associated with decreased pain with walking and increased pain with prolonged and improper sitting.  There is up to 200 times the normal pressure in a disc when we remain seated.  Getting up and walking reverses the curve in our spine that occurs with sitting...allowing the disc to resume a more neutral position.  \n\nIf you already have a documented back condition, I suggest following up with a physical therapist who will perform an evaluation as to which exercises are the most appropriate for YOU (rather than guessing which ones MIGHT be good)!  \n\n...but keep up the walking if it decreases the pain...and limit your time sitting to 20 minutes at a time.

I do one of two things when my lower back starts to hurt that may help you.  Flip your mattress if you haven't in awhile.  You can also lay on your back on the floor and try to flatten out your back by pressing the small of your back into the floor.  You could also try getting a massage or visiting the chiropractor.  Hope you feel better!

Light to moderate exercise will help.  Take pain relievers at the FIRST sign of pain, don't wait or they will not be as effective.  Heat is helpful for relaxing muscles.  Warm baths with Lavender Batherapy, available at Walgreens is excellent.  Eat healthy.  Eat fruit, fish, and nuts; avoid starchy foods like bread and pasta which create bloat and discomfort.  Get outside and walk.  Try to relax. A good birth control pill will help prevent cramps also making a habit of exercise and a healthy diet are preventative measures.

alot of walking helps no jogging though that will hurt your back later on in life.dont eat and drink alot of fatty foods while sitting in front of your computer, this tends to put the weight on in the hips and buttocks.
