The correct sitting posture should be that the upper body is straight, the abdomen is closed, the jaw is slightly retracted, and the lower limbs are close together. If possible, the knee joint should be slightly higher than the hip. If you are sitting in a chair with a backrest, you should try to keep your back close to the back of the chair on the basis of the above posture, so that the muscles of the lumbosacral part will not be tired. After sitting for a long time, you should exercise and relax your lower limb muscles. In addition, patients with lumbar disc herniation should not sit on a low stool below 20cm, but try to sit on a chair with a backrest, so as to bear part of the weight of the body and reduce the chance of lumbar strain.
