Experts Warn Against Ignoring Back and Neck Pain
Don’t ignore back & neck pain, warn experts at hmtv conclave · thehansindia.com

Doctors at a health meeting in Hyderabad warned people not to ignore back or neck pain.

They said pain can be a sign that a person needs to change their daily habits.

People are less physically active than in the past, which can put more stress on the spine.

Sitting in one position for six or seven hours can also cause problems.

This is especially common among software professionals.

Back pain together with leg pain or a shoe slipping off may require a spine surgeon’s assessment.

Doctors recommended exercises that the body can safely handle and muscle strengthening.

They also warned that some yoga poses may cause pain or disc bulges.
