What does static sitting mean and what does it have to do with neck pain? i seem to have more neck pain when driving why is that?please help
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neck pain: Static sitting means sitting in a fixed position where the seat is rigid such as driving. Your position in the driver's seat is causing an uncomfortable posture for your neck and this is leading the muscle strain and pain. You may go to the car dealership or discuss with a driving profession the best ergonomic position for you in your car to help alleviate the pain. Neck exercises may help too.
