FAQs
Is it OK to wear back support all day?
It’s important to understand that back braces are made to help you alleviate your back pain. However, relying on this equipment every minute of every day is usually not recommended.
It is not the equipment that can cure back pain overall, but it is something that can help on several levels. It decreases the chances of further injury and can help you move better.
Relying on back support by wearing it all day will provide a misconception that this will be enough to cure your back pain, which is simply a myth. You will need to seek medical advice from your physician on what exercises and types of movements you must do to help heal your back pain.
Can you sleep with back support on?
When wearing a back support, it’s important to understand that it should be a short-term solution for pain relief.
You should only sleep with back support on occasions where the pain is unbearable. The short-term relief that back supports provide can help with the pain, but ensure that you don’t consistently wear the back brace.
How tight should a back brace be?
Caring for your brace is essential as it also has the potential to cause more damage than help (if maintained incorrectly).
To make sure your brace is at the optimum space for tightness, ensure that you can move appropriately, you are eating and breathing without difficulty, and you are comfortable with the tightness of your back brace.
If any of these signs are showing, call your doctor and have your braces adjusted.
What is the fastest remedy for back pain?
There are a lot of ways you can remedy back pain, and the most common answer (and effective solution without equipment) is exercising. Particularly, an exercise that can target back muscles, such as swimming, yoga or even running can drastically reduce back pain on a long-term basis.
