Texting on mobile phone always makes your spine and neck strain. This is not crazy it is real find out as per a study published in the Medical Journal, Surgical Technology International. New York surgeon Kenneth Hansraj calculated the amount of pressure that neck and spine feel when typing.

Spending much time of day on looking down at your phone, tab or notebook can put up to 60 pounds of pressure on your spine and neck.

Actually average head weight of an adult weighs about 10 pounds, for texting we need to look down towards the mobile phone for a long time which can result in an addition of up to 50 pounds of weight pressure. Which in turn result in 60 pounds of weight? It really effects like carrying a dog or pet of 40 pounds weight on neck (shoulder).

To avoid this type negative effect we have to keep our mobile phone in straight to eye or head position. And we can adjust our desktop position and the seating adjustment like in the following picture.

Thus, keep on texting for a long time pains a lot.
