Many back pain problems are caused from poor posture. Fortunately posture of many people has greatly increased from the use of computers. While you are at your desk be sure that you have proper posture and take many breaks to walk around, this increases circulation.
Poor lifting practices is another reason why so many people are suffers of back pain. If you have to lift on anything that is greater then fifty pound you should get somebody to help you, and be certain that you keep you knees bent. By bending your knees before you lift it prevents all of the weight from being put on your back.
