Sitting-related pain

This hub groups the main sitting-triggered pain dossiers. Each entry links to a dedicated knowledge file to understand the mechanical, functional, and neuro-tissue mechanisms involved.

If pain worsens while sitting, the key question is often not “where it hurts” but what changes mechanically and neurologically in sitting posture. Start here to build a coherent mechanism map.
