Are you really going to grow a horn from slouching over your smartphone?
I saw this on FoxNews the other morning and couldnāt stop laughing. Is it for real?
(Omahgawsh. Is this the horrid bone spur weāve heard about?)
Their work notes many other potential causes of these spurs: general poor posture āwhile sitting, standing, or sleeping,ā ābike riding using drop hand-bars,ā or āsleeping supine with a high pillow.ā The authors dismiss the latter two because theyāre not new to society. But, again, thereās no definitive evidence that these spur growths are a new phenomenon, either. Maybe people who ride bikes with drop bars and prefer a high pillow are just prone to these spurs, and weāve been living this way for generations with no serious consequences.
