Obesity is like an open invitation to Spinal problems

Strangely though we are counted among the poorest countries of the world,still obesity is on the rise in our country.According to a recent survey one in every five Indian is an obese.There are several reasons for this, ranging from high consumption of junk food to lack of physical activity among others. But by now you must be wondering how come a Spine specialist is writing on Obesity.Well there is a connection ,obesity means increase of weight,increase of weight means that bones have to carry extra weight.For some time the body does it but after a while it gives up.The bones get weakened and once your bones get weakened,then you are surrounded by variety of problems like Slip Disc,Osteoporosis ,TB of Spine and several other serious Spinal problems.So watch your weight!.
