Another thing you can do to relieve some of the pressure on the lower back is to try laying on the floor face down for 2 mins each hour. It really works! Good luck A.D.

Often they will give you a free checkup just to get your business. I got a free x-ray once! See a chiropractor. Often they will give you a free checkup just to get your business.

It is possible, though getting a new mattress is another test. If you could do some long walks at convenient times during the week, you might find they ease the stress and the pain simultaneously. It wouldn't hurt to try. (Often people aren't aware that stress can cause physical problems.) Have you considered that your back pain might be caused by a combination of stress and lack of exercise?

Is it the bed? Is it the position you sleep in? Are you not sleeping well, and tensing up, maybe while dreaming? Are you constipated? Straining? In the morning use a heating pad on your back. When the pain subsides enough to where you can get out of bed, take a hot shower or bath. When your skin has returned to normal after the hot shower or bath, rub in some sports cream, or use a patch. Perhaps someone can rub the pressure points in your feet. Try to walk a bit to loosen up your muscles. Don't do anything extreme until you know the cause. Does your insurance cover a chiropractor? Sometimes it just takes a few sessions to realign something that is out of whack. Maybe keep a journal of your daily activities. Sometimes that can pinpoint your problem. Are you doing anything right before bed, maybe lifting your children, leaning over the bed to kiss them goodnight, leaning over the sink to see better in the mirror? Are you walking a dog that pulls right before bedtime? I mention these things as they've all caused pain in me or others. And the pain is not noticable right away, but hits with a vengeance hours later. You really need to find out what is causing your pain. Is it the bed? Is it the position you sleep in?
