A member asked:
Can long legs/arms lead to health problems involving your back-bones?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No unless it means: That you are taller than 6 feet as taller people have an increased risk of lower back problems just due to the mechanics and loads on their spine based on size alone. The other scenario would be a syndrome being portrayed like marfan's which has issues as well with the spine.
