Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 26 year old female. I have some backbone problem. I feel slight pain in my backbone from two to three years when I was in a desk job. I used to sit most of the time on a chair.

Answered by Dr. Althuri Mohan Krishna

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

From the complaints you had described, mostly it could be related to poor posture at your workplace.

Lack of exercise could also be one of the causes.

I would suggest you consult an orthopaedician online for further follow up.
