(Baonghean.vn) - Sitting in front of a computer for many hours in an air-conditioned room greatly affects women's health.

- Daily exposure to computers, phones, etc. will inevitably result in radiation exposure. Radiation strongly affects cells that can divide and differentiate rapidly, such as sperm, eggs, and embryos. This hinders conception and can even end a developing pregnancy. - Prevention: Do not sit in one place in front of the computer for too long. Drink green tea regularly because green tea contains substances such as polyphenols that absorb radioactive substances. Use a spray to moisturize the skin. Place a small pot of plants: cactus, snake plant, sedum... on the computer desk to absorb some of the radiation. |

- Keeping the neck in an immobile position for a long time will cause poor blood circulation, leading to osteoarthritis, cervical spondylosis, then lumbar spondylosis, hip pain, neck and shoulder pain... - Prevention: Adjust the temperature of the working room from 26 to 28oC. Take a few minutes to exercise: turn your body, turn your neck left and right, bend your head forward, tilt your neck back... |

- Symptoms include numbness, pain in both arms and wrist joints, and loss of sensation in the fingers. The most serious is damage to the wrist nerves, and the hands gradually turn black due to necrosis. - Prevention: You should adjust your sitting posture, back straight. Massage your hands, fingers, and stretch your arms whenever you have free time. |

- Using air conditioners in the room makes your skin dehydrated and dry, easily leading to allergies or dermatitis, making your skin deteriorate badly. - Prevention: Use moisturizer to add moisture to the skin. Keep a bottle of mineral spray on your desk. Drink plenty of water and eat lots of fruit to hydrate your body. |

- The cause of this condition is because office workers sit a lot and move little, causing more fat to accumulate in the abdominal area than normal. - Prevention: Consume just enough calories, avoid eating too much flour, sugar, oil, etc. Find every opportunity to exercise: get a glass of water, throw paper in the trash, take the stairs. When sitting, keep your back straight and pull your stomach in to make your abdominal muscles firmer. Wait at least 30 minutes after lunch before lying down to sleep. |
