posture, for example, lying on your back with your
knees and hips bent and hugging your
knees towards your chest. This should take some
of the pressure off the nerves in your back. Also, if you must stand, try flattening your lower back a bit by drawing in your abdomen. This should also help to take the strain off your back. In bed lie on your back with your knees bent OR on your side with your knees bent and a pillow between your knees OR on your stomach with two pillows under your abdomen.
