An unhealthy lifestyle is becoming increasingly common worldwide, leading to a significant rise in health issues, especially those related to the spine.

Sitting for hours in the wrong posture on chairs is contributing to the increase in spinal problems, often leading to the need for surgery.

Dr. Surabhi Bhagat, Senior Specialist at Ortho Renew Regenex India Joint, Spine, and Sports Clinic, lists the common spinal issues caused by prolonged sitting:

1. Degenerative Disc Disease: The cushion between the spinal vertebrae deteriorates.
2. Herniated Discs: When the soft inner part of a disc protrudes beyond its outer layer.
3. Facet Joint Arthritis: Inflammation of the small joints in the spine.
4. Spinal Stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal, putting pressure on the nerves.
