6 daily habits that harm your posture

Cross your legs over the back of the chair:Dr Sunil Kulkarni, a health expert specializing in spinal pain management in India, says this habit can damage the hips, affecting posture.

Look at the phone:According to The Health Site, many people have the habit of bending their necks down to look at their phones. This can put pressure on the neck, leading to neck pain, and over time, forming bad posture. To prevent this, you should hold your phone up high, at eye level.

Wear high heels:High heels are fashionable but wearing them for long periods of time can affect your gait and posture. Therefore, you should limit wearing high heels.

Hook the bag on the arm:This is a common habit of many women when carrying handbags. This habit can cause damage to the shoulder blades and hand joints. If you want to maintain this habit, carry a light bag. If the bag is heavy, it is best to carry it on your shoulder.

Stand on one leg against the wall:Many people have this habit of putting their weight on one leg when they are tired. It gives you instant relief, but at the same time puts pressure on one side of your lower back. You should stand on both legs to distribute your weight evenly.

Sleeping face down:This sleeping position is harmful to the spine and neck because you lie on your side for a long time. You should sleep on your back because it does not put much pressure on your back.
