SLIP DISK AND RELATED PROBLEM .... Sedentary life style due to job in IT and BPO companies have arise medical problems specially in spine .... Though it is not always easy to find a specific cause for a slipped disc, it can be as a result of a particular strain on your spine, such as bending awkwardly, or awkward or heavy lifting. Being overweight, leading a very sedentary lifestyle, particularly if you do a lot of driving, and smoking are also known to weaken the disc tissue, which can lead to a rupture. Age can also cause a weakening of the tissue, and slipped discs are most commonly found in those between the ages of 30 and 50, with men twice as likely to suffer as women. Slipped discs caused by sitting or driving for long periods, or frequent heavy lifting, can also be avoided. It is essential to lift safely, bending your back, hips and knees as you lift, keeping the weight close to your waist and keeping your head up as you carry. And if you your job requires you to sit all day, try to take regular breaks, stretch and walk around, and ensure that you invest in a comfortable seat with lumbar support. If you think you may be suffering from a slipped disc or have continuing problems, it is essential to speak to your GP for advice about embarking on an exercise regime, medication, alternative therapies or possible surgery. Doing regular exercises at-least for 40 to 45 mnts can avoid such medical conditions and also help u to save more rather than paying endless amount to the doctors ..... Precaution is always better than cure .....Tc
