Studies have shown that sitting for a long time can lead to low back pain and numbness in the buttocks muscles, which is the most direct effect of sitting for a long time on the skeletal muscles. Some experts said that "sitting" is a very hard posture for the lumbar spine in the first place. Because when a person is lying flat, the pressure borne by the lumbar intervertebral disc is the smallest, and when sitting, the weight of the head, trunk and upper limbs is basically concentrated in the lumbar spine, and the pressure carried by the lumbar spine is the largest at this time, and the continuous pressure is easy to cause orthopedic diseases such as lumbar disc herniation.
Therefore, if a person maintains the same posture for a long time, it will cause muscle stiffness, fatigue and cervical spine pain, and even cervical spondylosis.

Also, don't stilt your legs, which will only increase the burden on your lumbar spine. When we are sitting, the weight of the head is what we have to bear, and if a support is applied on the table by the elbow, the tension borne by the thoracic vertebrae can be reduced.
