From Couch to Clinic: How Inactivity Causes Joint Pain After 40 :
Joint and back pain is no longer limited to old age. Dr. Nava Jeevan Kumar (PT) MSPT, Senior Physiotherapist and Associate Professor (Ph.D), explains that people in their 30s and 40s are increasingly experiencing joint and spine-related problems. The major reasons are a lazy lifestyle, lack of regular exercise, and excessive dependence on mobile phones. Mobile phones, though convenient, have become one of the biggest lifestyle disasters, negatively affecting both mental and physical health. Easy access to everything has increased stress, curiosity, screen time, and reduced physical activity. Conditions like diabetes, high stress levels, and hormonal changes also worsen joint pain. Additionally, desk jobs and long sitting hours with poor posture are major causes of back pain, neck stiffness, and muscle weakness in young adults.
The solution lies in simple and consistent lifestyle changes. Dr. Nava Jeevan Kumar emphasizes that just 30 minutes of daily exercise can significantly improve overall health. Regular physical activity improves heart health, strengthens muscles and bones, lowers blood sugar levels, improves sleep quality, reduces blood pressure, supports weight loss, and helps control stress. Physiotherapy plays a key role in managing joint and back pain through posture correction, pain-relief techniques, and customized exercise programs. At Harathi Physiotherapy Rehabilitation Clinic, patients are guided to move better, live pain-free, and prevent future problems. Reducing mobile usage, staying active, and following a daily exercise routine can protect your joints and spine. Start caring for your body today to enjoy a healthy, active, and pain-free life after 40.
