I am in my late 40s and have lower back pain.

I am a man in my late 40s who is employed.

I have been married for 20 years and have been working at my job for a bit longer.

Sometimes I move while working, but mostly I do seated face-to-face work or computer tasks.

Since about 7-8 years ago, I have experienced occasional lower back pain, which worsens with overexertion.

A few years ago, I had an MRI of my lumbar spine, and I was diagnosed with a herniated disc.

I'm sometimes worried because I don't get the work right or receive proper treatment.
