Can sitting for long hours causes chronic hip joints pains? I repair phones and used to sit for long time without moving, and now my hip joints have been paining for quite a long time. Thank so much for the opportunity given.

Yes if you do sit in an improper posture for ling hours then obviously it gives you hip, knee and lower back pain and sometimes neck pain as well. Its good that you work hard but taking care of health is also important, Maintain proper sitting posture, give a break of atleast 2mins every 30mins, take a walk, drink water and sit back again to work. Do regular warmup exercises in the morning to avoid day stress while on work to avoid unnnecessary pains. Take Calcium and vitamins rich diet, maintain proper posture which is most important to avoid joint pains.
