We went to an event where they were shearing sheep today and walked around a lot so no more pain for me! If anyone else has tips though it would be helpful in the future.
I think in my case my husband had my car seat in a different position. I like to have it straight up and down for my posture. He likes it leaned back so maybe that's what caused the pain.
Lamm,
I gotta admit, the only thing that ever causes me any back issue is SITTING for a long time (typically, in a car). I admit, my Mazda Miata is bad about that - the seats don't give enough lower back support and in time, my back starts to bother me. My wife's Honda Pilot is much better; she has the seat adjustment to give the MAX support there and my back appreciates that. I wonder if SITTING isn't a big part of the "back problem" so many have.
I'm REALLY careful when I'm at the fitness center, too. I had a trainer years ago who so STRESSED caring for the back and I've remembered her every word about that. I work to strengthen my back - not stress it.
At work, a lot of us have gotten those raised stations that mean you work the computer standing up. All MUCH higher. My head is STRAIGHT when looking at the monitor and I'm standing up. I can lower all that and sit if I want to, and I tend to switch back and forth. My neck and back both feel better. When I'm a work, I'm standing most of the day. And I can raise or lower the level just to give variety. I wish you could do that with a car.
