Excessive Use Of Gadgets In Indian Homes

Abstract

The proliferation of mobile devices, online communities, and instant messaging services has altered our perspectives. More than 6.9 billion individuals use mobile phones worldwide. Musculoskeletal problems are common among those who use electronic devices for long periods of time. Damage to the muscles, tendons, and nerves in the neck, shoulder, forearm, and hand can lead to chronic pain, weakness, numbness, or a loss of motor control; this condition is known as repetitive strain injury (RSI). Long-term usage of electronic devices is bad for your eyes, neck, shoulders, and hands. Anxious and depressed feelings about one's social interactions and one's
ability to have a positive impact on the lives of others are common among heavy smartphone users because of the decreased amount of face-to-face engagement they experience. The purpose of this article is to examine the research and compile a list of issues related to'screen time,' as well as potential solutions to these issues. Constant thumb discomfort when using a smartphone may be the consequence of a repetitive stress injury or overuse syndrome. The human body may be negatively impacted by prolonged exposure to electronic devices. To improve people's mental health, we must spread awareness about the benefits of smartphone usage in moderation and the value of social relationships. Doctors should refresh their knowledge of these emerging illnesses, and the next generation has to be taught proper ergonomics and the risks associated with excessive device use.
