I'm 25, been having constant lower back pain for long time. not over weight. do exercise from time to time.lumbar support to give support. what to do?

Lose the support: Using lumbar support initially ok. After a while, not helpful, may even contribute to wreaking of muscles and increasing your problem. Strengthening your stomach and back muscles the way to go. No flexion at the hip. Bend your knees to pick something off the floor. Stretch, drink water, and consider a chiropratic evaluation and treatment.

Core strength: Exercises to build solid symmetric core strength are readily available on the web. Stretching, particularly hamstrings can be very helpful. Yoga can frankly accomplish all of these goals, and there are many free yoga resources online.
