Question

Arshya's mother used to sit with the back hunched or bent. Now she has pain in her shoulders and in her back since many days. Which of the following muscles do you think may be involved?

• A. Muscles of shoulder and neck
• B. Muscles of back
• C. Triceps
• D. Both (a) & (b)

Answer 1

The correct option is D Both (a) & (b)

We must perform regular exercise. It makes the muscles strong. We must sit with a straight back, and not with the back hunched or bent. Otherwise, gradually, changes occur in the structure of the vertebrae. Muscles in the shoulder and back begin to hurt. Disorders of the vertebral column may also arise.
