Which backpack is better for my back problem

health advisory Hospital Health care 2007-11-14 16:20:16

I just saw the doctor today and he told me that i have a stress fracture in my lower back and that, hopefully, it's gonna heal within the next 4 months. I was wondering if I were to switch from my normal backpack to a shoulder bag, would that relieve some pressure from my lower back because stress fractures in the lower back aren't guaranteed to heal and i want to do as much as possible to make sure it does heal.

Answer:

I would get one of those backpacks that have wheels on them and pull it. Carrying backpacks of any sort are bad for our backs.If you go to a shoulder bag, those hurt your shoulders and back.


I have back problems for over 15 years. I had scoliosis surgery (rod infusion on mostly the entire spine from neck to lower back) when I was 14 and the tension remains since then.

I would say shoulder bags wont help much either because its causes imbalance to the upper part (shoulder) which would eventually affects your problemetic area. Personally speaking backpack works better for me.

Try to carry less or use the wheels one so you dont have to carry any weigh on your body, and use the elevator instead of dragging it upstairs when you need to go a couple floors up.


a shoulder bag probably wont help much and it will make your shoulder hurt, but try to carry books or other stuff in your arms and less on your back to see if that helps
