Back Pain When You Sneeze? Here's the Fix.
Try this simple method to prevent sneezing related back pain.
Does sneezing cause you back pain?
For many people with back pain, spine flexion (bending forward) aggravates their condition.
When we sneeze, we tend to bend our lower backs into flexion very suddenly. If spine flexion causes you problems, then you may find sneezing is associated with your back pain.
You may experience this as a sudden, sharp stab or "catch" in your lower back.
If this sounds familiar, here's the fix:'
Next you time you feel a sneeze coming on, prepare your body to avoid bending your lower back.
You are going to lift your chest and raise your head about 45 degrees to gaze upwards towards the sky. Hold this position through the sneeze. Instead of bending over and directing the sneeze towards the ground, you will remain in an elevated position and direct the sneeze upwards toward the sky.
This approach will help prevent your lower back from flexing and triggering your pain.
