A few months ago I was facing back surgery. Unlike most people with an aching back physical therapy and ice packs didn’t bring relief. As I considered my options I began to investigate the different types of spinal surgery. I found out that there are several different types of back operations depending on the symptoms. Below I have created a short list of the most common procedures.

The procedure I had was a discectomy. This is where a piece of the disc is removed to relieve pressure on your nerves. disectomy is the most common form of back operation. In my case the surgeon also created more space between my disc and the nerve.

Another common procedure is the foramenotomy.  Here the disc is removed plus some bone and other tissue, obviously a little more severe than a discectomy.

One of the most popular and highly recommended exercises is going to require the use of a chair. You should sit in a sturdy chair and slowly lean forward until you are touching the floor in front of you. Hold yourself in the lowered position for 20 continuous seconds and then slowly bring yourself back to the upright sitting position. You should repeat this exercise three to five times.

Another great technique to use will require the assistance of a hard surface, such as a floor. You will need to lay completely flat on your back with your legs straight on the floor. Using both of your hands you should touch your left knee and bring it as close to your chest as you can. Hold this position for 10 seconds and then slowly, with your hands lower your leg back to the original position. Alternate to the right leg and repeat this for three sets.

Sedentary Work: Sedentary work can led to weak muscles, then you play a round of golf on the weekend –  results a pain in the back.

Stressful Job: I think we are only just beginning to understand the role stress can play in our overall health.

Anxiety & Depression: Same as above.

Finding the right back pain relief exercise for you and your individual issue might prove to be a trial and error scenario. However, more than likely you will find a great exercise program with the assistance of your medical care provider to meet all of your needs and relieve your back pain. If you feel the pain has intensified in any way while you are exercising you should immediately stop the exercising and contact your medical care provider for other suggestions.
