For years , when I was younger , I suffered terrible pain in my hip/buttock area , used to take lots of pain medication after seeing the doctor , but to no avail . I eventually went to see an osteopath , on the advice of a friend , osteopathy in those days was not a recognised treatment by doctors . The osteopath said I was suffering from a trapped sciatic nerve high up in my spine , about the seventh vertebrae down , seemed odd to me at the time as the pain was in my buttock area and sometimes travelled down to the knee . He spent some time massaging and using a tens machine on the general spinal area , before eventually manipulating the spinal joints , at the end of the session , he gave me some stretching exercises to do and told me what to avoid doing , he suggested that one of the worst was laying on a sofa , resting my head on my arm , thereby crunching the vertebrae and crushing the nerve . Within days I felt better , after my second visit all the pain had gone , after the third visit that was it , he'd done the business , and no drugs at all . That was around thirty years ago , I still carry out the stretching exercises , usually in the shower and watch my posture .
I often find I suffer leg and stomach cramps if I drink too much beer or whisky , drinking plenty of water to rehydrate gets rid of the cramps , and I drink gin and diet tonic now , for medicinal purposes , the quinine in the tonic stops cramps and is often prescribed to stop cramps

The misery of the pain , the times I couldn't work , the lack of sleep ,I was just glad to be rid of it all , being self employed though , I found it hard to believe at the time , that the cost was not tax deductible .

I can testify it works with gin bob , but being diabetic I use the diet tonic , full on gin though , sometimes a small compromise does you good !
With reference to your bad posture at the computer , try using a smaller device whilst laid on your back on the bed , I only have an iphone 4 to be online , and still not finished my lounge off yet , so spend most of my lounging time at home on the bed , no back problems .
