Back Injuries: Back Sprain (Sacroiliac Region) Symptoms and Treatment (conclusion)

What activity is proper during rehabilitation and recovery?

You can begin daily rehabilitation exercises when supportive wrapping is no longer needed and with the blessing of your doctor. Use ice massage for 10 minutes before and after exercise. Fill a large styrofoam cup with water and freeze. Tear a small amount of the foam from the top so the ice protrudes. Massage firmly over the injured area in a circle about the size of a softball.

How do the Bodyguard™ Compression Shorts reduce some of the complications of lower back sprains?

The Bodyguard™ Compression shorts are designed to absorb and spread lower back strain, raise muscle and ligament temperature, add comfort, stability and performance enhancement to the lower back area. The Bodyguard™ can absorb direct impact and protect a sprained or bruised lower back.

For chronic and recurring lower back sprain sufferers it reduces the incidence of pain and swelling occasioned by use, while adding stability and performance enhancement.

As with all Bodyguards it provides compression, support, muscle and tendon heat circulation, strain distribution and impact absorption.
