  1. Avoid standing with a bent back
  2. Working places should be to the height of waist, so that it will be comfortable. 
  3. Lift weight or children by bending your knee and keeping your spine straight. Don’t lift weight and twist your spine. Avoid carrying weights above your shoulder. When lifting weight, keep feet apart, lift the object close to your body and lift with your thighs
  4. Don’t lift heavy load of weight at a single attempt. If necessary divide the load into smaller units.
  5. Always prefer to pull or push the heavy article, rather than try lifting it. 
  6. Avoid prolonged forward bending for cleaning/washing
  7. Regular exercises strengthen the muscles of back, increases flexibility and improve posture
  8. Keep your weight under control. 
  9. Use a firm and thin mattress. Too soft or too hard surfaces worsen the pain symptoms. Sleep on your back with a pillow under the knee. You can sleep to one side with your legs bent. This will support your back. The bed height should be appropriate to easily get in and get out
