Even without the presence of an underlying condition, neck and spine issues have been independently associated with excessive cell phone use.⁸ In addition, there is a unique condition called occipital neuralgia, which occurs when nerves in your spine become compressed and cause radiating headaches and other pain. Believe it or not, craning your neck to view your smartphone screen may lead to this scary issue!

Researchers analyzed 1060 students of the Health Sciences Faculty at the Simón Bolívar University during June to December 2018. The study group consisted of 700 women and 360 men. With an average age of 19 years and 20 years respectively. Participating men were 36.1 percent likely to be overweight and 42.6 percent likely to be obese. Women were 63.9 percent likely to be overweight and 57.4 percent likely to be obese. Researchers found the risk of obesity increased by 43 percent if a smartphone was used five or more hours a day, due to decreased physical activity.

Hence, it is hard for smartphone users to just relax. If they are at a dinner and have their phone near them, they quickly look to see what that latest alert is telling them. If they are about to sleep, it’s hard to power their brain down if they have  just checked news updates.

This can disrupt sleep patterns and elevate depression and anxiety levels. It can be disruptive to functioning well in a person's daily life.

1. Use their mobile phone for a prolonged period of time and find it difficult to put their phones.

2. This affects their ability to focus on the task at hand as they feel that constantly need to check on their phones in case they miss out any messages from their friends and peers, updates from Social Media posts.

3. Should they happen to leave their phones at home, they will also panic as they do not know how to go about their day without their phones. They also worry about whether they are missing out on something important. They also find that they are unable to complete tasks they feel are important as their smartphones are not there for them to check on information which they need.
