Unusual back pain causes

How many times have you reached to get something from the floor and then suddenly you felt strong back pain? Back pain is very common among people, but besides usual reasons, there are few unusual causes for back pain.

1. Unsuitable footwear

Certain flat footwear can significantly contribute to back pain. Ultra thin soles don`t absorb "stepping shock" and although vertebrae in the lower part of the spine are filled with liquid that relieves the impact, if you walk with unsuitable footwear for a long period, back pain can occur along with other health problems.

2. Children

If you have small children, then it is very probable that you move them from point A to point B. Additional 5,10 to 15 kilos (11, 22 to 32 lbs) can be a heavy burden for the muscles on your back. This is especially visible if you hold your children in an unnatural position. So, which is the best way to hold your children?
Rely on one of your hips and occasionally change the side, to keep balance.

3. Telephone

Talk on your phone as much as you like, but whatever you do, don`t put the phone between your shoulder and your head. In this way you stretch your spine to its limits, which eventually causes back pain. If you talk on the phone very often and your arms need to be free, buy a hands-free speakerphone.

4. Sitting in the same position for too long

If you sit in the same position for too long (for example for 8 hours on your desk at work), that can be very painful for your back. In order to correct your situation, move a little bit from time to time, so you will trigger some other muscles in your body. Make small breaks to get up and stretch your body.
