Why does lying on floor help my back. i have scoliosis, arthritis, disk degeneration.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Back pain: Lying down reduces the pressure on the disks in your spine (as opposed to sitting or standing). You would need to see an orthopaedic doctor for exam and XR for further diagnosis.
