The lumbar spine, or low back, is a remarkably well-engineered structure of interconnecting bones, joints, nerves, ligaments, and muscles all working together to provide support, strength, and flexibility. However, this complex structure also leaves the low back susceptible to injury and pain.Lower back pain has many cause and we need to make sure we don't ignore signs of pain.

Back pain is a very common condition, albeit a uniquely experienced one. Ranging from the dull or throbbing aches of spine osteoarthritis to the shooting, sharp pain of a ruptured disc, back pain can also come and go, be constant, worsen with exercise or prolonged sitting, and/or be associated with neurological symptoms like numbness and tingling.

While back pain can be frustrating and debilitating, the upside is that the majority of episodes of back pain improve or resolve with minimal care, and usually within a few weeks

Treatment of low back pain is optimally directed toward a diagnosed or suspected specific but they are home exercise that can help to relieve the pain.

Stretching keeps the muscles flexible, strong, and healthy, and we need that flexibility to maintain a range of motion in the joints. Without it, the muscles shorten and become tight. Then, when you call on the muscles for activity, they are weak and unable to extend all the way. That puts you at risk for joint pain, strains, and muscle damage.

For example, sitting in a chair all day results in tight hamstrings in the back of the thigh. That can make it harder to extend your leg or straighten your knee all the way, which inhibits walking. Likewise, when tight muscles are suddenly called on for a strenuous activity that stretches them, such as playing tennis, soccer, netball or running they may become damaged from suddenly being stretched. Injured muscles may not be strong enough to support the joints, which can lead to joint injury.

Regular stretching keeps muscles long, lean, and flexible, and this means that exertion "won't put too much force on the muscle itself,. Healthy muscles also help a person with balance problems to avoid falls.

Sitting in certain posture position is not the problem but the problem is how long you sit in that position. It could lead to muscle tightness and that could lead to lower back pain and or neck pain depending on position. So make sure what you do you have good posture position. If you work at home with computer find time to stand up and stretch that could help out.
