5. Light Source Syndrome

Prolonged exposure to light leads to optic nerve fatigue, a lack of ultraviolet light, and a potential calcium deficiency. Excessive light use invisibly disrupts the body's natural clock, causing insomnia both day and night.

Mitigation methods:

1. If natural light is sufficient, turn on the lights as little as possible;
2. Get more sun exposure.

6. Skin allergies

Prolonged use of a computer screen can lead to a loss of elasticity, dryness, premature aging, and wrinkles in the skin. For people with allergic skin, regular computer use makes the skin, especially facial skin, more susceptible to irritation.

Mitigation methods:

1. Do not place piles of paper and documents around the computer;
2. Wipe the surface of the computer desk with a damp cloth dipped in antistatic spray;
3. Open windows frequently to ventilate;
4. Place a potted cactus on the computer desk, as the cactus needles can absorb dust.

7. Computer mania

The data report also shows a significant proportion of cases of computer mania. What is computer mania? If your computer is running a little slow, you feel like tapping it and don't have the patience to wait. If the computer accidentally freezes, you might even want to drop it. Keep in mind that you might be experiencing computer mania, but it's actually due to excessive work pressure that's really affecting your mood.

Mitigation methods:

1. As soon as the computer fails, you should distract your gaze and attention as quickly as possible in order to relax;
2. Save work documents at all times and back up data to a portable hard drive: If the computer has a problem, you won't suffer too great a loss and your emotions won't suddenly lose control.

8. Dangers of electromagnetic radiation

Employees have to use computers, so they are almost constantly exposed to electromagnetic radiation.

Mitigation methods:

1. Do not point the back of your computer monitor at the back of your colleague's head or the side of your body;
2. Drink green tea frequently and wash your face often;
3. Place a pot of plants or water under the computer desk to absorb the computer's electromagnetic waves.

9. Chronic gastritis

High work pressure, lack of sleep and irregular eating.

Mitigation methods:

1. Adjust your eating habits and minimize irregular eating;
2. Avoid drinking strong coffee and strong tea, avoid smoking, and drink less;
3. Find a way to reduce stress.

From the "occupational diseases" of office workers in this statistic, it is not difficult for us to highlight that almost every office worker has at least one symptom.

In this team of office workers, where everyone is in "sub-health", I have some suggestions for everyone: Normally, you can exercise more in your free time, control your diet, adjust your mentality, and know how to use your own decompression methods.
To relieve the pressure, we can only better recognize our worth by taking good care of our bodies!
