A shocking and disturbing report has emerged among the growing use of gadgets. According to this, youth who use gadgets all the time and remain in the same position for long periods of time are more likely to have a repetitive strain injury (RSI). Not only this, office goers and sports people also get caught in the disease easily. Spinal problems are seen more among professionals, especially in the age group of 20 to 40 years. This is the reason why 18 lakh people are getting afflicted with RSI every year. By the way, 80 percent of such cases can be resolved through lifestyle changes, such as good nutrition and plenty of exercise.
Why is there disease?
Most people of this age are working professionals who travel long distances to reach the office, drive by it and after that sit for the whole day working in the same place.
Work from home, not only in the normal office, work on computer or laptop, sitting for conferencing and meeting and remaining busy on mobile for the rest of the time.
In the moments of leisure, some people also use gadgets to read books and fall asleep while reading.
Spending so long on screen and unnecessary exposure puts strain on the spine and increases the likelihood of a sprain in the ligament that binds the vertibra.
In this case the muscles begin to tighten and there is an increased risk of problem in the disc.
What are the symptoms?
Tenderness or pain in the affected joint or muscle.
Tingling, especially in the arm or arm.
Reduced sensitivity and power.
These are also the reasons
Excessive use of the same muscle or group of muscles.
Use of vibrating equipment.
