A doctor has provided 1 answer
Back strain: Posture is very important and ergonomics plays a role in today's society, especially when at the computer for long periods. Make sure you have proper back support in your chair and your back pain should improve next time you sit in front of the computer. If the pain persists, see your dr. For treatment. Best wishes.
