I tried to hop out of bed in the morning as usual and it was\u2026 excruciating. It took me several minutes to fully stand up straight, and I spent the day shuffling around, totally hunched over.<\/p>\n<p>Sitting was incredibly painful, so I started working standing up. After driving, I\u2019d spend several minutes awkwardly standing next to my car, trying to get fully upright again before I could start walking. At one point, my upper torso shifted to the left and locked up that way, forcing me to walk around crooked.<\/p>\n<p>I finally got an MRI and discovered that I had several herniated discs. My doctor isn\u2019t sure why \u2014it could be something as simple as repeatedly lugging around my son\u2019s (incredibly heavy) car seat. I\u2019ve seen several back pain specialists and have been told that there\u2019s nothing they can do for me, short of surgery or steroid injections, both of which I\u2019d rather avoid.<\/p>\n<p>After years of physical therapy, I finally found a solution that works for me: Biking and swimming, along with daily stretching and core strengthening at home. It requires time and energy, but I\u2019ll h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ily do it if it means I can avoid back pain in the future. And so far, so good.<\/p>\n<p>I know I\u2019m not alone in my battle against back pain. According to data from the American Chiropractic Association, half of all Americans say they have back pain symptoms each year. And, with more people staying at home\u2014and moving less\u2014due to the pandemic, those numbers are expected to increase.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re struggling with back pain, it\u2019s a good idea to be evaluated by a specialist to try to figure out <em>why<\/em> you\u2019re having issues, Dr. Christopher Wolf, orthopedic spine surgeon at Cedars-Sinai Kerlan-Jobe Institute in Los Angeles, tells Yahoo Life And, if you can figure out the source of your pain, you can work to avoid making the same mistake again, physical therapist Susan Fu, co-director of Rehabilitation Services at Providence Saint John\u2019s Health Center\u2019s Performance Therapy in Santa Monica, Calif., tells Yahoo Life.<\/p>\n<p>Once you\u2019re evaluated by a doctor or physical therapist, they can help determine next steps. But that <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a>ly involves some form of stretching, ice and heat therapy, and strengthening, Wolf says. And, to really make it work for you, you\u2019ll probably need to do a lot of this at home on your own. Fortunately, there are many products that can help.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some tools to pick up if your back pain struggle is real.<\/p>\n<p>Ice can help soothe pain when inflammation gets to be too much. The ColePak has a flexible ice pack that conforms to your back, as well as elastic straps, so you can wear this on the go. Keep in mind that gel packs like this one get really cold, so you might need to wear a shirt between you and your pack, Fu says.<\/p>\n<p>You can usually help work out a muscle spasm through massage, but that\u2019s kind of difficult to do at home on your own. That\u2019s why Fu recommends having a bunch of balls handy. You can place one up against a wall and lean into it. \u201cThe key is to allow yourself to relax when using it, and wait for the muscle to actually release,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pd-list\"><!-- amazon_B015P53B78 --><\/p>\n<div class=\"list-item large-view\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp img-link rapid-with-clickid etailiffa_link\" href=\"https:\/\/shopping.yahoo.com\/rdlw?merchantId=66ea567a-c987-4c2e-a2ff-02904efde6ea&amp;itemId=amazon_B015P53B78&amp;siteId=us-aol&amp;pageId=pnr-product-module&amp;providerId=amazon&amp;featureId=product-url&amp;itemName=ALIGNMED%2BPosture%2BShirt%2B2.0%2BZipper%2Bfor%2BWomen%2B-%2BWhite%2C%2BMedium&amp;merchantName=Amazon&amp;itemSourceId=B015P53B78&amp;brand=ALIGNMED&amp;price=95.0&amp;salePrice=95.0&amp;custData=eyJzb3VyY2VOYW1lIjoiV2ViLURlc2t0b3AtVmVyaXpvbiIsInN0b3JlSWQiOiI2NmVhNTY3YS1jOTg3LTRjMmUtYTJmZi0wMjkwNGVmZGU2ZWEiLCJsYW5kaW5nVXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYW1hem9uLmNvbS9ncC9wcm9kdWN0L0IwMTVQNTNCNzg_dGg9MSZwc2M9MSZ0YWc9YW9sMDEyMy1wLW8tYmstMjAiLCJjb250ZW50VXVpZCI6ImZlMGFkNDFhLTRkNjktNGIxOS04MzgxLWRkYWE1Njc4Y2YwYiJ9&amp;signature=AQAAAYQmp3FNkavrVz-YEsqOtBQVBFO-fg_TMo4bZbA-JtqN\" data-ylk=\"sec:default-product;subsec:commlist;elmt:amazon;pdid:AlignMed Posture Shirt 2.0;pid:amazon_B015P53B78;aid:amazon_B015P53B78;itemcost:$95;itmId:$95;sellerN:Amazon;cpos:3;elm:affiliate_link;itc:0;slk:$95 at Amazon;pkgt:square-img;pos:1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"caas-img has-width img\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/uu\/api\/res\/1.2\/cduLWlV_LzcUUxCYrC9j_w--~B\/aD00OTk7dz00OTk7YXBwaWQ9eXRhY2h5b24-\/https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/os\/creatr-uploaded-images\/2023-04\/db48f180-d4a0-11ed-9bbc-bbd004882c52\" height=\"499\" width=\"499\"><\/p>\n<p>ALIGNMED<\/p>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"list-info\">\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"AlignMed_Posture_Shirt_20\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp rapid-with-clickid name etailiffa_link\" href=\"https:\/\/shopping.yahoo.com\/rdlw?merchantId=66ea567a-c987-4c2e-a2ff-02904efde6ea&amp;itemId=amazon_B015P53B78&amp;siteId=us-aol&amp;pageId=pnr-product-module&amp;providerId=amazon&amp;featureId=product-url&amp;itemName=ALIGNMED%2BPosture%2BShirt%2B2.0%2BZipper%2Bfor%2BWomen%2B-%2BWhite%2C%2BMedium&amp;merchantName=Amazon&amp;itemSourceId=B015P53B78&amp;brand=ALIGNMED&amp;price=95.0&amp;salePrice=95.0&amp;custData=eyJzb3VyY2VOYW1lIjoiV2ViLURlc2t0b3AtVmVyaXpvbiIsInN0b3JlSWQiOiI2NmVhNTY3YS1jOTg3LTRjMmUtYTJmZi0wMjkwNGVmZGU2ZWEiLCJsYW5kaW5nVXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYW1hem9uLmNvbS9ncC9wcm9kdWN0L0IwMTVQNTNCNzg_dGg9MSZwc2M9MSZ0YWc9YW9sMDEyMy1wLW8tYmstMjAiLCJjb250ZW50VXVpZCI6ImZlMGFkNDFhLTRkNjktNGIxOS04MzgxLWRkYWE1Njc4Y2YwYiJ9&amp;signature=AQAAAYQmp3FNkavrVz-YEsqOtBQVBFO-fg_TMo4bZbA-JtqN\" data-ylk=\"sec:default-product;subsec:commlist;elmt:amazon;pdid:AlignMed Posture Shirt 2.0;pid:amazon_B015P53B78;aid:amazon_B015P53B78;itemcost:$95;itmId:$95;sellerN:Amazon;cpos:3;elm:affiliate_link;itc:0;slk:$95 at Amazon;pkgt:square-title;pos:2\">AlignMed Posture Shirt 2.0<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Made of Spandex and polyester, this zip-up shirt encourages you to activate the muscles needed for good posture.

But, when you sit and stand a certain way all the time, it\u2019s hard to correct it. That\u2019s why Wolf recommends investing in a posture shirt like this one from AlignMed. It helps move your shoulder blades and back into the right position so you can take extra stress off your spine.<\/p>\n<p>You can find this strap at most physical therapy offices. The Stretch Out Strap has 10 individual loops, so you can easily find the right length for whatever body part you\u2019re trying to stretch. This a great tool to have handy if your lower back is the issue. \u201cYou can use it to stretch out your hamstrings, which helps your pelvis and back muscles relax,\u201d Wolf says.<\/p>\n<p>There are a few things you can do with a good exercise ball like this one, and it largely involves core-strengthening exercises like planks and side planks, Wolf says. They\u2019re also good for getting to hard-to-stretch places, he adds.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pd-list\"><!-- amazon_B0007VB4NE --><\/p>\n<div class=\"list-item large-view\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp img-link rapid-with-clickid etailiffa_link\" href=\"https:\/\/shopping.yahoo.com\/rdlw?merchantId=66ea567a-c987-4c2e-a2ff-02904efde6ea&amp;itemId=amazon_B0007VB4NE&amp;siteId=us-aol&amp;pageId=pnr-product-module&amp;featureId=product-url&amp;itemName=Gaiam%2B610-6002RTL%2BBalance%2BBall%2BChair%2B-%2BClassic%2BYoga%2BBall%2BChair%2Bwith%2B52cm%2BStability%2BBall%2C%2BPump%2B%26amp%3B%2BExercise%2BGuide%2Bfor%2BHome%2Bor%2BOffice%2C%2BBlack&amp;merchantName=Amazon&amp;itemSourceId=B0007VB4NE&amp;brand=Gaiam&amp;price=69.98&amp;salePrice=69.98&amp;custData=eyJzb3VyY2VOYW1lIjoiV2ViLURlc2t0b3AtVmVyaXpvbiIsInN0b3JlSWQiOiI2NmVhNTY3YS1jOTg3LTRjMmUtYTJmZi0wMjkwNGVmZGU2ZWEiLCJsYW5kaW5nVXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYW1hem9uLmNvbS9HYWlhbS1DbGFzc2ljLUJhbGFuY2UtQmFsbC1DaGFpci9kcC9CMDAwN1ZCNE5FP3RoPTEmdGFnPWFvbDAxMjMtcC1vLWJrLTIwIiwiY29udGVudFV1aWQiOiJmZTBhZDQxYS00ZDY5LTRiMTktODM4MS1kZGFhNTY3OGNmMGIifQ&amp;signature=AQAAAYAb_D2MIeBdtrZVDl2lsBgDAgT4QxXJDneFj81MIMsM\" data-ylk=\"sec:default-product;subsec:commlist;elmt:chooseForMe;pdid:Gaiam Balance Ball Chair;pid:amazon_B0007VB4NE;aid:amazon_B0007VB4NE;itemcost:$70;itmId:$70;sellerN:Amazon;cpos:5;elm:affiliate_link;itc:0;slk:$70 at Amazon;pkgt:square-img;pos:1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"caas-img has-width img\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/uu\/api\/res\/1.2\/VB5_o_J3QNIfZvzahOG_HA--~B\/aD01MDA7dz01MDA7YXBwaWQ9eXRhY2h5b24-\/https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/os\/creatr-uploaded-images\/2023-04\/6ebbc2b0-d4a3-11ed-97fd-1e7f8d2f2fcb\" height=\"500\" width=\"500\"><\/p>\n<p>Gaiam<\/p>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"list-info\">\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gaiam_Balance_Ball_Chair\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp rapid-with-clickid name etailiffa_link\" href=\"https:\/\/shopping.yahoo.com\/rdlw?merchantId=66ea567a-c987-4c2e-a2ff-02904efde6ea&amp;itemId=amazon_B0007VB4NE&amp;siteId=us-aol&amp;pageId=pnr-product-module&amp;featureId=product-url&amp;itemName=Gaiam%2B610-6002RTL%2BBalance%2BBall%2BChair%2B-%2BClassic%2BYoga%2BBall%2BChair%2Bwith%2B52cm%2BStability%2BBall%2C%2BPump%2B%26amp%3B%2BExercise%2BGuide%2Bfor%2BHome%2Bor%2BOffice%2C%2BBlack&amp;merchantName=Amazon&amp;itemSourceId=B0007VB4NE&amp;brand=Gaiam&amp;price=69.98&amp;salePrice=69.98&amp;custData=eyJzb3VyY2VOYW1lIjoiV2ViLURlc2t0b3AtVmVyaXpvbiIsInN0b3JlSWQiOiI2NmVhNTY3YS1jOTg3LTRjMmUtYTJmZi0wMjkwNGVmZGU2ZWEiLCJsYW5kaW5nVXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYW1hem9uLmNvbS9HYWlhbS1DbGFzc2ljLUJhbGFuY2UtQmFsbC1DaGFpci9kcC9CMDAwN1ZCNE5FP3RoPTEmdGFnPWFvbDAxMjMtcC1vLWJrLTIwIiwiY29udGVudFV1aWQiOiJmZTBhZDQxYS00ZDY5LTRiMTktODM4MS1kZGFhNTY3OGNmMGIifQ&amp;signature=AQAAAYAb_D2MIeBdtrZVDl2lsBgDAgT4QxXJDneFj81MIMsM\" data-ylk=\"sec:default-product;subsec:commlist;elmt:chooseForMe;pdid:Gaiam Balance Ball Chair;pid:amazon_B0007VB4NE;aid:amazon_B0007VB4NE;itemcost:$70;itmId:$70;sellerN:Amazon;cpos:5;elm:affiliate_link;itc:0;slk:$70 at Amazon;pkgt:square-title;pos:2\">Gaiam Balance Ball Chair<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>This frame comes with a removable 52-centimeter exercise ball and is designed for people ranging from 5&#8242; to 5&#8217;11&#8221;.
