- | What To Do And Why | + | As you get older you realize that your body is not quite the same as it used to be. It is quite a bit more susceptible to all sorts of back discomfort In reality, back pain can affect anyone. The following article will give some good pointers on what to do about back discomfort.[[http://www.slideshare.net/bowljet99/manage-your-back-discomfort-with-these-great-tips|Kneeling Chair Reviews]] |
- | It isn't fair, but buying a computer is just plain easier for some than it is for others. Those who've purchased and used a computer in the past already have an idea of what they need in a new computer. But those who are new to the computer world could get lost in the myriad of choices available. | ||
- | The short answer to "What should I buy?" is "The best." Of course that answer is extremely subjective because "the best" to one person is certainly different to another. Our definition of "the best" is the fastest and the biggest, but even that leaves the computer newbie confused. Here's a quick rundown of what the computer novice should do and why. | + | Make sure you're getting enough exercise. Exercise is essential to keeping the muscles in your back and your abs strong and healthy. If your muscles are too weak, you'll be putting a lot more stress on your bones. Stronger muscles help take some of that stress for themselves and save the bones. |

- | 1. Buy a computer that includes basic peripherals. Every computer can be broken down into four major components: CPU unit, monitor, keyboard, and mouse. For the novice, it's best to buy a computer that has all of these components included so that when it's taken home, assembling the computer is a simple matter of plugging things in where they belong. Save the individual purchases of these components for those who have more experience. | + | |
- | 2. Decide what you'll use the computer for. If you want to use your computer for cruising the web, sending email, or performing simple word-processing or spreadsheet tasks, a computer with the basic components that we just described should suffice. If you want to use a computer to help with a career in multimedia however, you're going to need to accessorize your system with a scanner, printer, digital camera, tablet, or digicam for example. If you want a computer to help with a career in music, you will need a quality microphone and set of speakers. | + | When moving an object, try to push it rather than pulling. If you need to move a large item, stand close to it while tightening your stomach muscles, and push with both arms. By pushing the item, you are using your stomach muscles, as opposed to pulling, which puts intense strain on your back, possibly causing you to injure yourself. |
- | 3. Create a budget and stick to it. How much can you afford to spend on a new computer? Although the prices of computers are decreasing, they can still create a hefty expense especially if you need additional peripherals described above. In addition, you'll need to figure in costs for maintenance, servicing, and insuring. | + | Sometimes, standing over a prolonged period can cause back pain, but there are certain things you can do to relieve this. Always wear comfortable shoes, and try to stand on a soft surface whenever possible. Rest one foot on a stool, and try not to bend over your work. Every so often, change your position, and if possible try to find somewhere to sit for a few minutes at a time. |
- | 4. Start comparison shopping and look for the "fastest and biggest." By "fastest and biggest," we mean the computer with the fastest processor, the fastest modem, the biggest memory, and the biggest hard drive capacity. Even if you think that you'll never need the amount of speed or space available on the market today, it's important to have in the event that you truly do need that much in the future. Having such a large reserve will cut down on costs when the time comes to upgrade for more than what you may settle for in a computer that offers less. | + | Don't rely on over-the-counter painkillers to rid your body of back pain These pills can be very addictive, have undesirable side effects and are not very effective at reliving serve back pain The best option is to visit your local physician, which can prescribe a pain medication specifically designed to target back pain. |
- | 5. Stick with the better-known brands. Venturing off the beaten path with lessor-known brands is again, an adventure for those who have more experience with computers. Although those better-known brands may be a tad bit more expensive, the computer novice will appreciate the comfort in purchasing a computer from a business that has a long record of building quality products, and that has the funds available for fulfilling returns, trades, servicing, and warranties. | + | Apply topical pain relievers to help relieve back pain. Various creams, oils, gels and medicated patches are available that can be applied to the area of the back that hurts in order to offer pain relief. Many can be found over the counter, but some can only be obtained from a medical practitioner or by prescription. |
- | 6. Select a store. Having an idea of what you want in a computer and what kind of computer that you want, your only task left is to select the place in which you want to buy it. There are a number of places available including computer store outlets, online stores, auction sites, used computer stores, or your friendly neighborhood yard sale. For the computer novice, we recommend buying a computer from a physical store. In a physical store, you have the opportunity to see the computer of interest in person and ask questions. New computer buyers also have access to store warranties, returns, trades, and services. | + | [[http://www.mindpicnic.com/group/dont-live-with-back-discomfort-any/|Kneeling Chair Ikea]] Take breaks between long periods of sitting to keep your back in tip top shape. Taking regular walks or just getting up and doing some stretching exercises will go along way towards preventing back discomfort.
