Take Frequent Breaks
Change positions regularly to give your muscles the rest needed
to support you better when you return. If you're sitting,
stand up. If you're bending over, stand and arch backward.
A 60 second break every 20 minutes is ideal.
•
Walk 30-minutes briskly on a flat surface
Its important to keep your body's circulation working
well. This helps to increase healing. If pain arises take
breaks as needed.
•
Apply ice
Should your pain become severe, apply ice to the area for
20 minutes. Do not put directly on the skin.
• Do not sit longer than
15 consecutive minutes.
• Use foot ease, curb,
etc. for one leg during prolonged standing to lower pressure
on your back.
• Sleep on your side with pillows below the
knees or on back with pillows under your knees.
