Activities to Avoid with a Herniated Disc

Having a herniated disc can be a painful and debilitating experience. It is important to take the necessary steps to ensure that you are taking care of your body and avoiding activities that could worsen your condition. Sitting for too long, lifting heavy objects, and engaging in strenuous activities should all be avoided when recovering from a herniated disc. Washing clothes, bending down to clean or fill pet bowls, and doing squats should also be avoided.

Additionally, it is important to use a body pillow when sleeping on your side and to stand or lie down as much as possible. Walking, riding a stationary bike, and swimming are all appropriate forms of exercise for those with a herniated disc.
