Studies have shown that the pressure within the intervertebral disc is minimal when a person is in a supine position, and is greatest when sitting or in a forward-flexed position of the lumbar spine. And in the daily activities, sedentary and lumbar spine repeatedly forward flexion especially. Keep this posture for a long time, will increase the pressure of the lumbar disc, this cumulative injury can make the intervertebral disc aging degeneration or small joint structure disorders, narrowing of the vertebral space, the overall shortening of the lumbar spine after pressure, serious compression of the nerve, causing lower limb numbness and discomfort and other conditions.
