Morning back pain....

Morning back pain....

I hve DDD and arthritis in my back. But for the last 15 months PAIN in the morning when I wake up and during the night after about 4 hours of sleep is so bad. Once I get up walking for a bit I am better. Pain in back but nothing like the morning when I first get up. I have tried many antinflammatories and no relief. What should I do. I am about 5'2 and 175 lbs and all the weight on my hips and belly!!!!!

Hi and welcome to the back and neck support forum.

I am not a dr, but was told by one for these issues to try and keep my weight appropriate for my height...I need to lose weight.....and I was told to stretch and work on my posture.

U may want to look at how old ur matress is and if it may be time to get a new one or a different type than what u already have.
