Tightness may be noted in bed as you relax & muscles are not braced. Arthritis or degenerative disc disease may be worse on activity. Your physician or orthopedic specialist can examine and advise

Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
