Too Long; Didn't Read

Programmers spend most of their time in front of the computer screen, mostly sitting. While their brain is actively working, their body does not, these are the most widespread health issues for programmers. These include Genitourinary system illnesses, prostatitis, hemorrhoids, back pain, thrombosis and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. These are common health issues programmers face and possible solutions to help you stay healthy. For example, stand up regularly (thanks, Apple Watch!) or go outside for exercise during the working day.
