Why Does My Back Hurt in the Morning?

For many of us, mornings can be hectic.

While hitting snooze for a few extra minutes of sleep feels great, the rush to get ready and make it to work on time can be overwhelming.

During these chaotic mornings, we often overlook the strain we put on our spine with all the bending, twisting, sitting, and lifting. For individuals with low back pain or sciatica, these movements can make symptoms more pronounced in the morning.

If this sounds familiar, you might be wondering why your mornings are so uncomfortable.
