How does posture affect back pain?

Good posture promotes strong core muscles. Bad posture? Well, let's just say it teaches your muscles to crumble like a cookie.

This goes not only for standing, but for sitting, as well. It's also worth noting that you should be aware of your posture whenever you use any exercise equipment, like stationary bikes or stair climbers. Correct posture should be practiced with your back against a wall.

Tucking your chin slightly will allow a larger area of the back of your head to touch the wall as well as the top of your back, your buttocks, and legs. The small of the back should not be against the wall (the spine is naturally curved). Pretend a string attached to the top of your skull is pulling you skyward and feel yourself becoming taller.

When you're standing for a long time, elevate one foot on a step or curb to help alleviate some pressure. And if you're sitting for a long time, put your feet up on a stool, so you knees are higher than your hips; that will decrease the pressure on the discs in your lower back. You can also get a small kid's ball, rolled-up towel, or bag of frozen peas (wrapped in plastic and used for only 20 minutes) to place in the small of your back for some additional lumbar support when sitting.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
