<human>: For the past week i have began to have severe lower back pain and it has started to limit my movement at work. Im scared that it might be something serious but im not sure if im just overreacting to some over exhertion from work. i stand for almost 8 hours straight 5 days a week.
<bot>: Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum, Lower back pain may be due to Lumbar strain/sprain or disc prolapse needs following precautions: Avoid riding two-wheeler. Don't lift heavy weight. Sleep on hard mattress and on your back and side, don't sleep in your abdomen since the muscles will get more strained. Avoid sudden bending and turning. Take hot fomentation daily twice. Sit in a proper potion, don't hunch back when u sit. U can wear LS belt while travelling. Consult or tho specialist for further treatment. Hope I have answered your question, Regards
