Whether due to physical injuries or sitting for hours behind a desk at work, poor posture is a problem experienced by most. While this body mechanics issue is often recognized for the way it changes physical appearance, it can also be the hidden cause behind many common health problems. To better understand these risks and make pain management more efficient, here are five common health issues affected by posture.
5 Health Problems Connected to Poor Posture
1. Arthritis Flare-Ups
If you have arthritis, maintaining proper posture is essential to keeping your joints healthy. Slouching, slumping, or holding your body in any other unnatural position places extra pressure on joints and can trigger inflammation. When you have chronic arthritis symptoms, a pain management assessment can isolate the problem area and determine how posture may be contributing to flare-ups.
2. Stress
Although stress is often considered to be strictly a mental health problem, it can also come about due to physical tension. Specifically, postural issues—especially those that occur during movement—can cause muscles to become tight and tender. As your body processes this physical tension, you may experience many other effects associated with stress—including fatigue, reduced immune health, and poor concentration.
3. Bad Circulation
Slouching, not relaxing your arms, and sitting on your legs are all postural issues that can impair your body's circulation. When you engage in these actions, you interrupt the flow of blood and nutrients in your body. This can result in chronic pain, numbness, and the eventual development of varicose veins.
4. Chronic Headaches
If you're not sitting or standing properly, misaligned joints may eventually pinch your nerves and tense muscles may lead to trigger points that refer pain elsewhere in the body. When certain nerves are affected or trigger points develop, pain signals are often relayed to the brain, triggering frequent headaches and other forms of physical discomfort. Treating this problem often requires pain management care involving not only posture correction but also an assessment of pinched nerves.
5. Digestive Problems
When you slouch, you're not only placing pressure on your spine—you're also compressing all the internal organs in your abdominal cavity. Over time, the problem may contribute to gastrointestinal disruptions that may cause digestive issues and stomach pain.
Whether you want to relieve or prevent any of the above issues, Hands-On Health Massage & Physical Therapy in High Point, NC, is here to help you correct your posture and improve your overall health.

European Union officials are pressuring the U.S. government to do more on its end of the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield program, ahead of a high-stakes bilateral review.
More than 3,600 U.S. companies, including Alphabet Inc.'s Google and Microsoft Corp., which are both certified, rely on the program to move data out of the EU. But EU officials warn that U.S. oversight has been anemic, leaving EU citizens without adequate data protections. They plan to raise their concerns at a review with U.S. officials in Brussels starting Oct. 18.
The EU is concerned about how the Commerce Department is performing its oversight of U.S. companies under the program, the bloc's lead privacy supervisor said. EU officials also have criticized the lack of a permanent program referee at the State Department and shaky review of U.S. surveillance activities.
"The Privacy Shield is in some ways a relic from the old data protection regime, pre-GDPR," European Data Protection Supervisor Giovanni Buttarelli told Bloomberg Law. The EU will have to decide in the review if the "Privacy Shield is still fit for purpose," he said.
The program undergirds an estimated $260 billion in digital trade between the EU and U.S., according to Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Tamlin Bason.
"There is no question that a very significant number of entities rely on the Privacy Shield, and it would be reasonably devastating to the global economy if the program fails and there isn't sufficient time provided to comply with another data transfer mechanism," Lisa Sotto, privacy partner with Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP, told Bloomberg Law.
The European Commission approved the Privacy Shield in 2016 to straddle the EU's stringent privacy protections and less-demanding U.S. law. U.S. companies must certify that EU personal data will be subject to the same protections it has inside the bloc to participate.
The review, the second one since the program took effect, may be a turning point, given EU concerns about whether the program is protecting EU data as intended.
"In the first annual review of the Privacy Shield, the Commission has recommended to the U.S. to be more proactive in tackling the issue" of companies falsely claiming participation in the program through their privacy policies, EC spokesman Christian Wigand told Bloomberg Law by email. Commerce has improved its procedures, but EU officials will raise the subject again during the upcoming review, he said.
EU officials haven't signaled any readiness to end the program now, and privacy attorneys say the EU isn't likely to scrap it. But that may change if the U.S. doesn't fully address the EU's concerns, leaving thousands of U.S. companies to scramble to find another way to comply with the bloc's data rules.
Commerce declined to comment on alleged delays in the Privacy Shield certification and recertification programs. The White House and the State Department didn't immediately respond to Bloomberg Law's email requests for comment.
U.S. Oversight Role
EU officials set out several conditions for the Trump administration in last year's Privacy Shield review, some of which the U.S. has addressed.
The EU called for a fully functioning U.S. Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board. The board now has four members after the Senate Oct. 11 confirmed three of President Donald Trump's nominees. The Senate Judiciary Committee hasn't acted on Trump's two other nominations.
But, the board will have to act to assuage EU concerns over U.S. surveillance activities, EU officials said.
The Trump administration partially addressed another condition, that the U.S. name a permanent U.S. Privacy Shield Ombudsman, when State Sept. 28 named Manisha Singh in an acting capacity. The previous ombudsman also was in an acting role. The last permanent ombudsman served during the Obama administration.
But EU officials also have questioned whether Commerce, which is charged with administering the Privacy Shield, and the Federal Trade Commission, which brings enforcement actions against U.S. companies for violations, are being tough enough.
The FTC on Sept. 27 settled with four companies for falsely claiming participation in the Privacy Shield. The charges were in part based on companies saying they were in the process of certifying their privacy policies under the Privacy Shield when they hadn't actually undergone the process. The companies neither admitted nor denied the FTC's allegations as part of the settlements.
Commerce lists the companies that are certified under the program and those whose certifications are inactive. Companies must state in privacy policies when they are certified with the program, and are required to remove those statements if their certification becomes inactive, privacy attorneys and EU and U.S. officials said.
Buttarelli said he had found "inconsistencies" in the certifications and recertifications of U.S. companies appearing on the online Privacy Shield list. Buttarelli, who raised similar concerns in 2017, said he will discuss the topic with U.S. officials again in the second review.
Any perception that the U.S. is not living up to expectations may cause the EU to ask for changes to the program, privacy attorneys said. Administrative tweaks and resource allocation could help smooth out EU concerns, they said—and some of those tweaks have occurred.
Commerce "conducts quarterly reviews of organizations on the Privacy Shield inactive list to monitor for false claims," Caitlin Fennessy, the Privacy Shield team lead, told Bloomberg Law. "In addition, Commerce conducts random compliance spot checks of Privacy Shield-certified organizations."
Commerce Oversight Concerns
Commerce is experiencing a high volume of recertification requests, which could contribute to a large number of companies on the inactive list for minor deficiencies, companies and privacy attorneys told Bloomberg Law.
The EU's General Data Protection Regulation, which took effect May 25, likely led to a wave of applications from companies seeking to participate in the program for the first time, which may have created a Commerce backlog, they said.
Some companies said the alleged backlog is causing them to appear inactive on the Privacy Shield website when they filed recertification paperwork on time. Companies say that their cases weren't processed before their recertification deadline lapsed.
Stephanie Bachman, director of legal affairs at Flatiron Solutions, a multinational company that provides software and content management consulting services, told Bloomberg Law that the company recertified its compliance with the Privacy Shield principles before its deadline lapsed. In reaching out to Commerce, Bachman said she received a message that there was a "high volume" of certification and recertification requests. The company, as of Oct. 15, remains inactive on the Privacy Shield website.
Other company officials representing Alcoa Corp. and Humble Bundle Inc. told Bloomberg Law that they had communications issues when contacting Commerce officials about their recertification requests. Alcoa remains inactive since July 10, but Humble Bundle received its recertification approval Sept. 6.
Cynthia LaRose, head of Mintz Levin's privacy and cybersecurity practice, told Bloomberg Law that such episodes aren't isolated incidents.
Commerce also declined to answer questions on specific company recertification issues.
Review Ahead
Top EU officials are urging the U.S. to follow through on its commitments to the program.
The EU's leading privacy official, Vera Jourova, in early September called on Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross to "use his strength" to help Commerce and the U.S. oversee the program. The commission will follow up with a report on the program's health, Wigand said.
The commission and Commerce appear committed to resolving certification concerns, despite EU criticisms, "particularly in light of the implications for international e-commerce," Linda Priebe, privacy partner at Culhane Meadows PLLC, told Bloomberg Law.
"How quickly they can achieve that, remains to be seen," Priebe said.

SIMI VALLEY (CBSLA.com) — Grief counselors assisted Simi Valley students and teachers Friday who are affected by the tragic death of their fourth grade peer.
The boy died Thursday afternoon after he was struck by an SUV outside of Madera Elementary School on Royal Avenue, according to the Simi Valley Police Department.
Paramedics transported the fourth-grader to Robles Hospital in critical condition for treatment of severe head injuries. Several hours later, he was taken off life support and subsequently passed away.
Family members have identified the victim as Angel, according to CBS2's Greg Mills.
They have issued a written statement that reads in part: "The Hoke family would like to thank our family, friends and community for their amazing outpouring of love and support in our time of grief. The loss of our beloved Angel was a tragic accident and he will be missed by all that were touched by his life.
Preston Foster, a family friend who works with Angel's father, told Mills he would stop in the garage everyday to chat with him.
Angel is survived by his parents, his sister Gigi and a baby of six months.
A preliminary investigation revealed the cause of the collision surrounds a game of pushing along a sidewalk.
Angel appeared to have fallen into the roadway in front of oncoming traffic, according to police.
"I saw the accident and pulled over," said Carlos Cano, a witness to the scene. "I ran to the kid. It was like there was nothing you could do and that was the worst thing."
According to Mills, the victim's sister watched the tragic accident unfold at the scene.
Police said the driver was traveling at a low rate of speed and tried to avoid hitting him.
The investigation is ongoing.
