How to control back pain when the weather turns cold

Báo Thanh niênBáo Thanh niên03/01/2025

Cold weather can aggravate spinal problems, making stiffness and pain worse. This is mainly due to cold temperatures and reduced physical activity.


When the temperature drops, the muscles and ligaments around the spine will contract and become easily stretched. This makes the muscles, especially the back muscles, more uncomfortable and easily leads to injury when carrying heavy objects, moving in the wrong posture or making sudden, quick movements, according to the health website Healthline (USA).

Low temperatures make back pain caused by herniated discs and spinal stenosis worse.

Meanwhile, reduced physical activity will make spinal pain more likely to occur. Because of the cold temperature, people tend to stay at home more, sit more, go out less, and exercise less . The result is reduced blood circulation and pressure on the spine.

People with conditions such as arthritis, herniated discs and spinal stenosis are particularly susceptible to back pain. Cold weather can aggravate existing symptoms.

Even people with healthy spines are more prone to back pain. This is due to lack of exercise, sitting a lot, poor posture when working at home or lying on the couch for hours.

To reduce spinal pain in cold weather, people can apply the following methods:

Wear layers of clothing

Wearing layers of clothing will help keep you warm and reduce stiffness in your back and spine caused by cold temperatures. In particular, your lower back should be well covered if you go out in extremely cold weather.

Sitting in the correct posture reduces spinal pain

When the weather gets colder, we tend to stay indoors more and sit more. Whether you are working or watching TV, you need to sit in the right posture, namely with your back straight, your shoulders relaxed and your feet flat on the floor.

Keep exercising

Cold weather makes it difficult for many people to exercise outdoors or go to the gym. However, we can still maintain our workouts at home with exercises such as yoga, stretching, push-ups or squats. These exercises will help maintain blood circulation and keep the spine flexible.

Eat healthy

For a healthy spine, people need to prioritize eating foods rich in calcium, vitamin D and omega-3 fatty acids. These include milk, yogurt, green leafy vegetables, almonds, walnuts, cashews, beans and fats, according to Healthline .
