Natural cure for back pain
  • Eating 2 cloves of garlic in the morning on an empty stomach is good for the ache. Garlic is good not only for backache but also for many other ailments and strengthens the immunity system.
  • Include vegetables, fruits and hot items in her diet.


  • Boil 10 to 15 leaves of Holy basil and boil it in 2 cups of water. When it is reduced to 1 cup, add salt to it and give her to drink it as hot as she can manage. This should be done for at least two times a day.


  • Get a massage done to her back with warm mustard oil or eucalyptus oil before going to bed at night.
  • In 1 teaspoon of honey, mix half a gram of cinnamon powder and give it to her twice a day.
  • If your wife also gets inflammation in her back from time to time, massage ice in the area and after it subsides, you can switch it with hot water bag.
  • Ask her not be in one position for a long time, bend to pick up things or sit in a sliding position.
  • She can prop on pillows to sit up when the pain aggravates.
  • She should try and sleep straight on her back on a firm mattress.
  • Yoga exercises will provide her with immense relief.
