I work in an office and I sit at my desk many hours every day
Trabajo en una oficina y me siento en mi escritorio muchas horas cada día
One morning I woke up with strong pain in my lower back
Una mañana me desperté con un dolor fuerte en la parte baja de la espalda
I tried to go to work but it was difficult to walk and sit
Intenté ir al trabajo, pero era difícil caminar y sentarme
After work I decided to visit a doctor at a local clinic
Después del trabajo decidí visitar a un médico en una clínica local
The doctor asked me simple questions about my work and my daily habits
El médico me hizo preguntas sencillas sobre mi trabajo y mis hábitos diarios
I told him that I do not do much sport and I sit almost all day
Le dije que no hago mucho deporte y que paso casi todo el día sentado
The doctor checked my back and said the muscles were very tense
El médico revisó mi espalda y dijo que los músculos estaban muy tensos
He explained that long sitting can cause back pain
Explicó que estar sentado por mucho tiempo puede causar dolor de espalda
He gave me simple advice and some medicine for the pain
Me dio consejos sencillos y algunos medicamentos para el dolor
He told me to stand up every hour and move a little
Me dijo que me levantara cada hora y me moviera un poco
He also showed me a few easy exercises for my back
También me mostró algunos ejercicios fáciles para la espalda
I started to follow his advice the next day
Empecé a seguir sus consejos al día siguiente
At work I set a timer to stand up and stretch
En el trabajo puse un temporizador para levantarme y estirarme
In the evening I did the exercises at home for ten minutes
Por la noche hacía los ejercicios en casa durante diez minutos
After one week the pain became much weaker
Después de una semana el dolor se volvió mucho más débil
After two weeks I felt almost no pain
Después de dos semanas casi no sentía dolor
This experience helped me understand the importance of movement
Esta experiencia me ayudó a entender la importancia del movimiento
Now I try to take care of my back every day
Ahora intento cuidar mi espalda todos los días
I feel better and I have more energy at work
Me siento mejor y tengo más energía en el trabajo
