Back pain is merely a symptom of these issues and at some time or another, it will affect almost 80 percent of people throughout the US. Back pain, however, is fast to heal and rehabilitate with the right measures.

Starting a routine exercise plan that includes plenty of back exercise and structured physical therapy will improve both the strength and the flexibility of your muscles so that your spine to maintain an optimal and neutral position.

Strengthening the hip flexors, oblique and extensor muscles will also help to reinforce spinal support, reducing pain in the lower back and even alleviating the need for surgery in most cases.

Given that the spine is designed to support the back, sleeping for eight hours to give it a sufficient period of rest is essential.
