Subject : Attention - DO NOT sit on your wallet!
This
is something which we are not focusing in our daily life but can
produce multiple problems in spine especially for those who have a long
sitting hours. Make sure that when you sit in your office chair your
wallet is not in your back pocket.
ERGONOMIC TIP: Don’t Sit on Your Wallet!!!
Your
wallet can be real pain for your back and the buttocks,
and it can even lead to shooting pains down the legs. Sitting on a
wallet for prolonged hours every day can compress sciatic nerve which
passes beneath piriformis muscle and leads to piriformis syndrome, low
back pain & self-inflicted sciatica.
The wallet acts as a
wedge that forces the pelvis, spine and body out of alignment. Just as
you would not sit on a brief case or a rock for an extended period of
time, you should not sit on your wallet. Anyone who drives more than a
half hour sitting on a wallet is a candidate for sciatica or back pain.
The
healthiest option is to move the wallet to your front pocket. If it’s
must to keep your wallet in your back pocket, you should remove it
before you sit down.
You
will
immediately have a feeling of enhanced well-being, knowing that your
pelvis is perched on a level surface and all the musculoskeletal
structures above it are better off for your effort.
