Looking down for long hours on the computer, texting on phone, or being in a sedentary position when sitting or driving, will cause the head to shift forward and will round the shoulders forward. This causes the pectoralis minor/ chest muscle to become shortened and contracted. The plexus of nerves that form from the neck region runs directly under this muscle commonly compressing on these nerves that cause pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness to the neck, chest, shoulders, arms, and hand regions. There are several stretching exercises that I will review that you can do at home, that will help correct your poor posture and take away the pain.
