Does the Posture Affect Natural Hip Movement?
Having a good posture is very important for your
health. A good posture saves you from a lot of
medical conditions that can range from mildly
painful to excruciating. Even though our posture
is very important, we dont pay much attention to
the importance of good posture. Our posture can
affect different parts of our body and leave long
term effects. So much attention should be paid to
our posture. Hip Joint The hip joint is the
largest joint in our body. The ball and socket
joint connects the femur to the pelvis and allows
for flexible movements of the legs. Almost half
the weight of our body rests on this joint when
were walking and the joint suffers a lot of wear
and tear as it is frequently used. Therefore,
taking care of it is more important than you
think.

How bad posture can cause problems Having a bad
posture can sabotage the healthy movements of
your hips. Different types of postures put a
strain on your body that results in pain or
restricted movements in other parts of the
body. When a person sits down for longer periods
with his back bent in an unnatural position or
walks with his back slouching, it puts pressure
on his spine. Over time, this pressure causes the
vertebrae in the spine to slip forward onto the
other vertebrae. The vertebrae of the spine
usually rest on cushion-like structures called
disks which avoid friction. When the vertebrae
move forward, they press against the nerve that
runs through the spinal cord and causes
excruciating pain.

While this pain is generally felt as back pain,
sometimes, the nerve that runs through the spinal
cord and onto the hip is pressed which can cause
numbness or pain in the leg and hips. This
numbness and pain restrict the natural movement
of the hips. Unlike other forms of joint pain
where the pain can be relieved by resting in a
certain way, no posture relieves hip pain. No
matter what position you are in, hip pain is
persistent.
