Why body aches after sittting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vague question: Depends what part of the body "aches". Prolonged sitting, especially with poor posture and ergonomics in place, imposes a large degree of pressure on the disc, which in turn can lead to back pain or "ache". Sitting on ones tuchus for prolonged periods is not advisable.
