Incorrect posture is not only related to the unsightly appearance of the body, but also to certain health problems. This is important for maintaining both physical and mental health. If the posture is not correct, the body risks not functioning properly.

It is important to identify if you have an incorrect posture and to ask for specialized help, if necessary. Physiotherapy, physical therapy, swimming, yoga, pilates, and other forms of sports can significantly improve body position. Here are the consequences of incorrect posture on health.

Headaches

Incorrect posture is the main cause of cervical spine pain (behind the neck) and headaches. It is important that the neck and spine are aligned with the rest of the body. In the opposite case, muscle strains and headaches will appear.

Sleep disorders

The wrong posture can have a negative impact on the time it takes to fall asleep, but also on the quality of sleep. If the muscular system is not properly aligned, then it will not be able to relax completely.

Decreased motivation

A person with an incorrect posture may be shyer or may not have confidence in their own strength. This also negatively influences the activity at work or other plans that the person in question has. On the other hand, people with a normal posture are usually more self-confident and easier to approach, an aspect that is helpful in most social situations.

Leg pain

The wrong alignment of the posture can also affect the legs, at some point. This can cause pain in the lower limbs and prevent you from wearing certain types of shoes. That is why it is important to pay attention to the entire posture of the body, from head to toe.

Fatigue

Also, incorrect posture can make you feel more tired, especially after exercising. Some muscles will be overworked if you do not have a correct posture, and fatigue will set in quickly and intensely.

Lumbar back pain

Most people think that, due to a wrong posture, only back pain can occur at the cervical or thoracic level. But, most of the time, the lumbar spine also suffers.

Carpal tunnel syndrome

The nerves in the cervical spine and upper back control the nerve functions and sensations in the arms, wrists and hands. They can be affected at the origin (at the level of the spine) or due to muscle contractions, a phenomenon that leads to the appearance of carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms. Among them are the tingling, weakness and pain in the arms, wrists and hands.

Constipation

Incorrect posture also alters the functioning of the internal organs. This has a surprising effect on the movements of the food bowl in the intestines. The wrong posture slows down these movements and can lead to constipation.

Arterial hypertension If you have an incorrect position when you sit on a chair and then when you stand, the consequences can also affect your blood pressure. This can increase, especially because of the receptors in the neck that intervene in the regulation of blood pressure.
