People who sit at computers for a long period of time can have health issues sucj as RSI- repetitive strain injury. In the UK there are Acts bought in to stop this.

To stop RSI you need to take breaks from the computer. have the monitor at the same level as your eyes to stop eye strain. If you are getting head aches you can get monitor filters which go on your monitor and they help block out the bad rays from the monitor.

I usually get a sore neck for leaning in typing all the time. It is all in my neck and shoulders. I guess just the cost of spending too much time on the computer.

If I use computer for a long time I only feel tired. Anyway, I also think that it's bad for health. So i think we should do something to protect our body. For example, after using computer for a regular time(e.g. 1 hour) we should have a rest.

I guess the radiation that the monitor emits is not good for health, especially long hours looking at the monitor, and no break/rest in between. My eyes were painful after looking at the monitor for quite long hours, and that was CRT monitor. After that, doctor advised me to take a break after 30 minutes working with the computer, at least keep my eye sight away from the monitor for awhile, let my eyes rest. It helped. And I found that LCD monitor is much better than CRT monitor, I felt better looking at LCD monitor.

Sitting infront of computer is not bad but sitting for a long time may cause backache or headache or eyesight and straining of eyes, black scars under the eye etc...So i recommend not to sit infront for a long time,atleast one should take some breaks inbetween sitting infront of the computer so that the eyes may get fresh when stared again.Also cleaning the eyes with cold water gives freshness to the eyes and mind...
