Back pains are entirely uncomfortable and quite annoying. It is usually caused by postural negligence. Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency, shares 5 secrets for avoiding back pains.
Stretch
This isn’t so much of a secret, nevertheless it is an important way to help ease or avoid back pains. Gentle exercises or light stretches that help to release tension, can be a great way to combat back pain. You can perform these stretches at different points of the day, whenever you have free time. While on an airplane, maybe when you want to use the toilet, you can use the opportunity to walk in the aisle and do some light stretches to help release tension in your back, before returning to your seat.
Take a Nap or Go To Sleep
Surprising right? But sleep helps to facilitate the restoration of your muscles, and this can help to ward off back pain. However, for this to happen, your sleep has to be of high quality, meaning your mattress should be right for you, your pillows should not be too hard or high and should be placed properly. On an airplane, getting high quality sleep might be difficult, but you can improve the quality of your sleep largely by using a travel pillow and you should try to avoid falling asleep leaning forward without any back support.
Lift Things Correctly
Lifting things incorrectly is the number one mistake people that ends up causing them back pain. Always use safe lifting methods, especially when doing heavy or even slightly heavy lifting. Use a ‘Knee Bend’ for lifting objects with significant weight; while you can use a ‘Golfer’s Crouch’ or ‘Golfer’s Lift’ when stooping for smaller objects.
Avoid Sitting for Too Long
If you have to sit for long period of time, avoid slouching over and try to take ‘standing up’ breaks regularly. This is will help decrease the pressure on your back and help you avoid back pain. This is why during long flights, you shouldn’t just sit down all through. Get up and walk down the aisle from time to time, your back will thank you for it.
Be Active
Being active and moving your joint often helps to strengthen your muscles which helps you to easily avoid back and other muscle problems. Also, a good ‘core stability exercise’ programme can help ‘stabilize’ your spine and provide a ‘solid foundation for the rest of your body’s movement’. Aside from being active, you should ensure you avoid movements and postures that can cause back pain. When sitting down, especially on an airplane, avoid slouching on the chair or leaning forward without back support, for prolonged periods.

Bullets from Nerf guns can cause serious eye injuries, doctors from a London eye hospital are warning.
They treated three people with internal bleeding around the eye, pain and blurred vision after they were shot with the toy guns by children.
Writing in BMJ Case reports, the doctors recommended wearing protective eye goggles and said the safe age limit for the guns may need to be reviewed.
Hasbro warns players not to aim Nerf guns at the eyes or face.
On its packaging, it also advises that only bullets designed for the product should be used.
The BBC contacted the company for comment but has not yet received a reply.
Force and speed
Nerf guns, made by Hasbro, are designed for children aged eight and over.
The company also sells replacement bullets or darts - but cheaper versions are also available online from other retailers.
The eye experts, from Accident & Emergency at Moorfields Eye Hospital, said the unlabelled bullet heads were harder and could potentially cause more damage - something that parents may not realise.
'I thought I'd lost my vision for good'
Image copyrightBMJ CASE REPORT
Sarah Smith and her husband were "messing around" with their children's Nerf guns in January when he accidentally shot her in the eye at close range.
She said the impact immediately caused the vision in her eye to "go black", as if someone had "squirted black ink" into it.
"It's excruciating pain and just really frightening because of the loss of vision," she said.
"I thought I'd lost my vision for good."
After about 20 minutes the vision returned but remained blurry with occasional "flashes of light".
Sarah was taken to A&E the next day, where they told her she had suffered a flattened pupil.
She said it took six months for her sight to return to normal.
The guns are now locked away and can only be used by Sarah's sons, who are four and five, when they are supervised and wearing eyewear.
"They are dangerous. For children to use them they have to have goggles as well," Sarah added.
'Shrill scream'
Natalie Hearn-Smith's seven-year-old son was accidentally shot in the eye at "point blank" range by one of his friends.
"I heard his shrill scream, and I screamed and ran into the other room," Natalie said.
"I see him on the floor cowering, saying 'mummy, mummy, mummy, my eye...'
"He looked like he'd been 10 rounds in a fight. It was awful."
Natalie said her son had to have two appointments at a specialist eye hospital and then had to take antibiotic eye drops and cream.
His eyesight has since returned to normal, but she has now banned the guns from her house.
"He has been very, very lucky."
In their report, they describe the injuries of two adults and a child in separate incidents linked to Nerf guns.
One 32-year-old man was shot in the eye from eight metres away by a child with a Nerf gun. He suffered blurred vision and a red eye.
A 43-year-old woman was shot in her right eye from a distance of one metre and complained of blurred vision and a red, sore eye.
An 11-year-old child also suffered a shot in his right eye from a distance of two metres, and complained of pain and blurred vision.
He developed swelling of the outer layer of the eye (cornea), and the inner layer of the eye (retina), from the force and speed of the bullet fired by the gun.
All the patients were examined and treated with eye drops, the researchers said.
Check-ups after a few weeks showed that their sight had returned to normal.
'Protective eyewear'
While it was good news for the three patients, the doctors said that projectiles like Nerf gun bullets travelling at speed could cause long-term loss of vision.
One patient told the doctors that there were "numerous online videos which show children how to modify their guns to make them shoot harder, faster and further distance".
They added: "This case series emphasises the seriousness of eye injury from Nerf gun projectiles and calls into consideration the need for protective eyewear with their use."
But they said more research was needed to find out if eye injuries were on the rise as a result of toy guns.
The authors said they could not advise on a safe distance for shooting to avoid eye injuries on the basis of three patients.

Twenty-eight year-old Daniel Nsabiyaremye had the skills to be a carpenter but lacked the tools. After a series of loans that he spent on a hammer, spanners, saw, plane and a square set, he was able to launch his now thriving business.
"I bought the tools, one by one, from the money transfers I received," he says.
"Now, I don't lack the means to put food on the table. Before the programme, we used to eat once a day - and often it was a poor meal, consisting of cassava leaves and green bananas. Now we eat twice a day. It has meant a positive change in the health of my children and me."
Nadiya Hussain has spoken about her constant struggle with a panic disorder, saying her "whole life revolves around not falling apart".
Speaking on John Bishop's TV show, the former Bake Off winner described her condition as "a monster".
And she said she hadn't become "a new woman" since shooting to fame in 2015.
"Some days the monster shouts in my face. No matter where I turn, he will keep shouting at me. I can't get him out of my face," she said.
"Other days, he's behind me and he'll tap me on the shoulder a little bit here and there through the day and I can ignore him completely.
"Other days I can put him in my pocket. He's always there."
'Living with my monster'
Hussain, who is currently hosting BBC Two programme The Big Family Cooking Showdown, said she didn't want to take medication to ease the problem.
"I've spent my whole life trying to find a cure," she said. "You'll go to the doctors and they will give you pills and then you just won't feel anything. What's the point in not feeling anything?
"It's never going to go away, I have to learn to live with my monster. He's always going to be there."
She said her struggles have not eased since winning Bake Off in 2015 - which led to a new career fronting culinary TV shows and publishing recipe books.
Her television programmes have included The Chronicles of Nadiya and Nadiya's British Food Adventure.
"I don't feel like I'm a different person," she said. "I'm not a new woman. I've not suddenly become this confident person that can speak and isn't scared.
'Facing my fears'
"Nobody lives their whole life without being scared... And the one thing I've learnt about panic disorder and about my monster is that my monster would love for me to be scared and say 'no' to everything.
"Every time I'm faced with something that scares the living daylights out of me, I have to say 'yes' to it.
"Because if I say 'yes' to it, then I will come out on the other side of fear and then I can put my monster in my pocket."
Hussain was being interviewed by Bishop on his In Conversation With series, which will be broadcast on the W channel in the UK on Thursday.
She has previously spoken about how racial abuse is part of her life and has been "for years".
