What causes lower back pain and swollen feet?

Symptoms of lower back pain and swollen legs are often caused by bad living habits. For example, maintaining a fixed posture for a long time and not paying attention to movement will affect local blood circulation and cause soreness or edema.

1. Maintaining a fixed posture for a long time can easily cause back pain. Back pain may come from wrong posture. Posture is the most important factor in determining whether the back is healthy. Wrong posture is the main cause of back and back diseases, which usually leads to premature irreversible degenerative changes in the bones and joints of the spine, muscle imbalance and tension, and ligament relaxation or over-tightening, all of which can cause back pain.

2. Backward walking exercise (walking backwards) has a good effect on the recovery of chronic low back pain. You can try walking backwards. Wear flat shoes when walking backwards, walk slowly with small steps, and exercise enough so that your waist does not feel tired. You can exercise in small amounts and multiple times. Excessive exercise will aggravate the back pain. You can gradually increase the amount of exercise as the pain frequency decreases and the pain is relieved. You should do it within your ability and pay attention to safety.

3. If it is inconvenient to do backward walking exercise, you can also do it at home: barefoot or wearing flat shoes, step on the front of your feet on a book about 20 mm thick, stand upright, the longer the better, and feel whether the symptoms are relieved.

4. If you feel that walking backwards without physical experience relieves your symptoms, you can wear a pair of negative heel shoes that are higher in the front and lower in the back. Walking normally in them is equivalent to walking backwards. The principle is the same as walking backwards, forcing the center of gravity of the human body to move backwards, correcting the pelvic tilt and lumbar lordosis.
