Desk Workers: Doctor's Advice On How To Tackle Neck, Back & Eye Strain
Every week on The Saturday Social for the month of November, Dr Illona Duffy will be answering your question
This week, Steve got in touch about issues he's having working from home.
Morning Doctor,
I've been working from home for the past 15 months. Before this I was working in a job that required me to be on my feet a lot more, but now I'm really struggling with sitting at a desk for nine hours every day. My back and shoulders have started paining me, my eyes are so tired and strained and I feel exhausted at the end of the day, even though I haven't moved at all! Could you help please! It's really affecting my work output.
Thanks, Steve
