I’m 30 with severe lumbar disc herniation. I just want to sit on the sofa and watch TV to relax, but my lower back starts aching faintly after a short while. How should I sit on the sofa to avoid this pain? Any practical tips?
Prolonged sitting on a sofa can lead to lower back pain, usually due to the sofa seat being too low or sagging. This causes the knees to be higher than the hips, leading to pelvic tilt and curvature of the lower back, which can trigger or worsen back pain.
To alleviate this discomfort, when sitting on a sofa, ensure your feet are flat on the ground, your hips and knees are at a 90-degree angle (a footrest can be used to adjust this), and your back is supported by the backrest or a lumbar pillow.
