Brief Answer: take frequent breaks from the computer Detailed Answer: Hello XXXXXXX I understand your problem. Do not sit continuously in front of computer for long hours. You must take frequent breaks like once every hour. Also, use a soft cushion to support your back while sitting in the chair. Lie down flat on your mattress, do not use a pillow to support your head. Do back stretching exercises daily. When you maintain an erect back posture, along with these above measures, your back pain will go away. Hope this helps you. Get well soon.
