The human body is meant to move, and staying in one position for too long can make joints feel tight. Sitting at a desk all day can be stressful and cause: back pain, eyestrain, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) and sleep problems to name a few.
Avoid the common aliments/health risks of a sedentary yet stressful work environment.
Take a go at getting regular exercise including abdominal strengthening activities to relieve some of the pressure on your lower back. There are many you can do just sitting at your desk. Also sitting on a large wallet can put pressure on the sciatic nerve and that is not good for your lower back.
Eyestrain can cause headaches, neck aches and sore eyes etc. Try increasing your font size so you don't have to squint.
Try stretching and other exercises which may help release tension in the wrist to avoid CTS.
My biggest peeve is turning desks into bacteria cafeterias. Eating at your desk and never clean them. Keep antibacterial wipes close by to wipe down your work surface daily. Trust me it helps... After your desk; the phone is the dirtiest, the desktop is next, and the mouse and the computer follow.
Stay healthy, wealthy and wise!
