What are the dangers of sleeping while sitting?

Modern people are under great pressure whether at work or in study, but our bodies cannot bear such great pressure. When we want to rest and relax our bodies, there is not always a bed to rest on. Therefore, many people choose to sleep sitting on a chair, but sleeping sitting for a long time is actually very harmful to our body, but many people don’t know this. So this article will explain to you the dangers of sleeping sitting.

Decreased vision: This hazard is mainly aimed at those who sleep on their stomachs while sitting on stools or chairs. When sleeping on their stomachs, usually at least one side of the face is not lying down, so one eye is also pressed. The eyes are very fragile, and when pressed, the blood supply is insufficient. After waking up, the vision is usually blurred for a long time.

Produce severe dizziness: This phenomenon mainly occurs in older people or some young people with poor physical fitness. The brain is blocked for a long time and the blood supply is insufficient, so it is easy to cause dizziness when waking up.

Tinnitus: I believe everyone has had this experience. When you just wake up, you feel that there is always a strange voice next to you, but you can't find where the sound comes from. This is tinnitus.

Suffering from cervical spondylosis: Sleeping while sitting for a long time, whether you are lying down or not, will cause a lot of pressure on your neck, just like a rope with pressure on both ends, which will break after a long time. I won’t say much about what will happen to the cervical spine.

Numbness in hands and feet: Sleeping while sitting or lying on the table, with your head pressing on your hands and your feet bent for a long time, will inevitably lead to insufficient blood supply. It is very normal to have numbness in your hands and feet after waking up, but it will cause many adverse diseases in the long run. For example, the sciatic nerve.
