How does bad sitting posture affect physical health?
People who sit for a long time with their heads down and poor posture, coupled with lack of exercise, are very likely to experience soreness, stiffness and pain in the lumbar joints, hip joints, shoulder and neck joints, etc., sometimes accompanied by abnormal noises such as clicking and crackling, with a high frequency of attacks and a long duration. Nearly 50% of patients have such symptoms 6 or more times a year, and each attack lasts from 2 days to half a month, which has a great impact on life and work.
If the sitting posture is not corrected in time, the pain will gradually worsen, and then induce diseases such as cervical spondylosis, periarthritis of the shoulder, lumbar disc herniation, and lumbar muscle strain. When the disease is repeated or severe, it will also lead to bone hyperplasia, bone spurs, sciatica, and even paralysis in severe cases.
In addition, muscle tension caused by bad sitting posture may also compress blood vessels, cause insufficient blood supply to the brain, and cause a series of reactions such as dizziness, sharp decline in vision, and memory loss.
