Doctor warns against sitting habit that causes back pain while working

Orthopaedic surgeon Dr Kiran Shete has warned against the habit of tucking one ankle under the opposite thigh while working at a desk, stating it causes back pain. He said the position creates uneven pressure on the hips and spine and could lead to poor posture and reduced mobility. This may lead to stiffness, orthopaedic surgeon Dr Priyank Patel said.
