I find walking generally helps with my back pain, but not always. I can sometimes be quite bent over at the start of a walk, but this can ease as I get moving. Some days, though, walking is not an option and I would struggle to walk more than a few metres due to the pain and inability to fully control my right leg. Recently, it hasn’t been too good, but I am hoping to soon be able to start again trying to regain my walking fitness. I have found that I need to build up slowly, as protecting my back can stress other joints and cause different injuries. Walking poles are helpful in maintains a better posture in my case.
