I am suffering from pain while travelling by bus. Please suggest me precautionary measures and excercises to cure PIVD.

the precautionary measures are to avoid heavy weights, it would be best if you could consult a physiotherapist who could help you with some extension and back strengthening exercises, mainly to strengthen your muscles .
that should help with you pain.
also try to mantain a good posture.
