Causes of shoulder pain What causes shoulder pain

Office workers who often sit in front of computers usually feel sore and painful in their shoulders. In fact, for most people, shoulder pain is closely related to different sitting postures. So what factors are related to shoulder pain for office workers? Let's take stock of the factors that can cause shoulder pain.

Maintaining a bad sitting posture for a long time, either because your computer is placed too high, the chair is too low, or the office chair is too soft, or because you sit for too long, may cause shoulder pain. So to solve the problem of shoulder pain, you must adjust the position of the computer. You should try to place the computer directly in front of your line of sight, not to the left or right, so that the position of the monitor is level with your line of sight, or slightly higher. At the same time, choose a chair with a certain curvature. If you work a long time every day, it is recommended that you use an old-fashioned wooden chair. The curvature of the old-fashioned wooden chair is more in line with the curve of the human body, so it can reduce the chance of low back pain. The so-called soft special office desks and chairs may only make you comfortable for a while, but then you will feel uncomfortable the more you sit on them.

Of course, in addition to the inappropriate office chair and desk, the biggest cause of shoulder pain is working too long hours. You may sit for hours while rushing a project, or forget to eat while developing a new software, or even play games for hours without a break, which is also an important cause of shoulder pain. Therefore, adjusting your "office hours" is the key. You can set a rule for yourself to get up and walk around every hour, drink a glass of water, stretch, go to the bathroom, take a few steps, and then work again, or you can make a small software on your computer to remind you how long you should take a break, etc.

Of course, in real life, it is not only long-term bad posture, shoulder joint, or cervical spondylosis that can cause shoulder pain. Daily stiff neck, or "50 shoulder" in middle-aged and elderly people may also cause shoulder pain. Clinically, some people have heart problems, such as angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, and gallstone diseases such as cholecystitis, etc., which will also cause pain in the left or right shoulder due to the effect of reflex. It can be said that there are many reasons for shoulder pain in the human body, so it must not be ignored and must be treated in time.

In fact, it should be said that the cervical and lumbar vertebrae are the location of the human body's central nervous system. If there is a problem in any part, it may cause shoulder pain. Therefore, in addition to taking good care of the shoulders in daily life, such as avoiding cold and maintaining bad postures for a long time, you should also do some shoulder health exercises, such as raising your hands and hitting your armpits and shoulders, which often appear in health programs. These are also good ways to prevent shoulder strain and reduce shoulder pain.

Finally, I would like to remind you that whether you are a person who sits for a long time or someone who uses physical energy for a long time, especially those who use their shoulders for a long time, if you have shoulder pain on a daily basis, you can choose Chinese medicine massage to relieve it, or avoid the causes of shoulder pain.
