It is vital that when knitting you have good posture. It is important that when knitting you have good light so that you are not forced to bend down in order to see properly to work on your project. Having a chair that is not too soft and not too hard is a key component to prevent injury while knitting. Your feet should be flat on the floor, your bottom should be placed at the back of the chair and your knees should be faintly below your hips. Keep your shoulders away from your ears and have your shoulder blazed slightly squeezed together.
Taking breaks while knitting is a great way to prevent injuries from occurring. After about 30-45 minutes of knitting, take a 5-10 minute break and move around. By walking around or doing exercises will help with your circulation and keep you from developing repetitive strain injuries. One exercise you can do on your break is stretching. Gently move your neck from side to side and slowly turn your head left and right. Make circles with your hands both clockwise and counter clockwise. If you are able to, gently twist your torso left and right. Reach both of your arms up high. If any of these stretches bothers you or causes pain, try to modify it or just don’t perform that stretch. If you find yourself in pain or discomfort, listen to your body and give it time to recover before knitting again. To help calm any irritation, try icing the sore area. If the pain does not subside within a week, it is best to go and see a health professional, especially if you are experiencing numbness or tingling, loss or strength or radiating pain.

I agree with you that it's essential to take regular breaks, at least every 10 or 15 minutes, is important to rest and relax the muscles. It's fine to be engrossed in knitting since I also experience it sometimes but you really have to take care of yourself to avoid any injuries.

My name is Hailey Garcia and I am from New Jersey. My herpes virus turned to war after 2 years of living with it. I have tried different medical procedures to cure my herpes but to no avail. Most people think herpes is only a minor skin irritation of which herpes has long term effects on health and passes through the bloodstream and can be easily contracted through sexual intercourse. I knew I had herpes from the first day I started feeling itchy in my pubic area and the pain was very unbearable. I couldn't stand it anymore. After 2 years of trying other means to get rid of it, I had to contact Doctor Odunga to help me with a permanent cure. I saw his email and whats-app number from a testimony I read online from a lady who was also helped by him in curing infertility problems, I had faith and contacted him. He assured me of his work and I ordered his herbal medicine. Within 5 days, I didn't feel any pain anymore and within 2 weeks, my skin was all cleared and smooth. I am very grateful to you sir and I write this testimony as others have done to bring those having faith to you sir. If you have herpes or other similar disease and you want it cured, kindly contact Doctor Odunga, Whats-App (wa.me/+2348167159012) OR Email [email protected]

I was really stressed by Erectile dysfunction issues and had consulted Dr Moses Buba. He gave us a thorough consultation and the medicines were equally effective. In a couple of weeks there was big improvement in me and we are very pleased with the progress. We cannot thank Dr Moses Buba enough. Highly recommended.
