Good morning, I have had a sore back for the past 2 weeks, I notice when I sit down it seems to be alright once I get up the pain returns. I am obese maybe that could be the problem? When I m lying in bed and turn over my stomach and back hurt. I m finding it really difficult at times. I have changed my diet and hoping this could make a change.
Which aggravates after walking or straightening of spine (such as during lying on bed and turn over my stomach) and relieved with bending forward, sitting or taking rest suggests lumbar canal stenosis .it's a dynamic phenomenon in that neural canal diameter decreased due degenerative spine disease. Obesity aggravates the problem. In initial stages analgesics such as ibuprofen, weight reduction and flexion regime exercises (series of exercises in which abdominal muscles strengthens) gives some relief. For this you need experts guidance by rehab specialist and physical therapist. Hope this answers your question.
