Dr. P.K. Dave, Orthopaedic Surgeon, Rockland Hospital, New Delhi explains about the correct posture for working women. The correct posture is that your back should be straight. Slouching is not at all a good posture as it causes back ache. Spine has two kinds of curves. Primary curves are present at the dorsum and at the sacrum level. Secondary curves are present in the neck area and in the lumbar spine region. Pain occurs in the secondary curves. If people sit by bending forward too much or they are not sitting properly, they will suffer pain in cervical as well as lumbar spine.
