If you spend long periods of time sitting, you are at risk of having back pain. It is a fact, and while back pain is not a disease, it can be a sign of one if you ignore it. It can get worse over time, but it also goes away.

The main reason for this is that sitting, in office chair or in general, is a static posture that increases stress in the back, shoulders, arms, and legs, and in particular, can add large amounts of pressure to the back muscles and spinal discs.
