Brief Answer:
Do regular back exercises.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Bending down causes a stress on the back. It can cause pain. It is best to bend your knees and hip to do work instead of bending down. Skipping a meal can be associated with decreased fluid intake that can be associated with disc dehydration causing the pain.
Avoid both the aggravating factors and do regular back strengthening exercises.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
