🪑 Sit at a desk all day and have lower back pain?

A new study found that office workers with back pain had weaker hip muscles and poor coordination between the hips and lower back when bending.

Stronger hips = less strain on your spine and less pain.

📈 Neck pain is becoming more common in young people around the world.

A new study found that neck pain has been rising since 1990, especially in girls and in countries with higher incomes. It is expected to continue growing by 2050.

Why it matters:
🔹 Neck pain can start young and get worse with age
🔹 Poor posture and excessive screen time may be part of the problem
🔹 Some developed areas are seeing faster increases than others

The good news? Early care, better posture, and regular movement can make a big difference.
