A few ways your back might be calling you outâŚ
which one is you?
⢠Muscle strain (lifting something heavy, sudden movement, poor form during exercise)
⢠Poor posture (slouching while sitting, especially at a desk or on your phone)
⢠Sitting too long (lack of movement stiffens muscles and joints)
⢠Sleeping position (unsupportive mattress or awkward posture overnight)
⢠Overuse or repetitive motions (e.g., bending, twisting, or physical work)
⢠Lack of exercise (weak core/back muscles canât support your spine well)
⢠Tight muscles (especially hamstrings or hips pulling on your lower back)
⢠Stress or tension (can cause muscles to tighten, especially in upper back/shoulders)
⢠Minor injuries (like small sprains or inflammation)
⢠Sciatica (nerve irritation causing pain down the leg)
⢠Arthritis in the spine
