Working long hours in front of a computer can be fatal

Office workers often sit at desks or sit for hours in front of a computer screen each day dying from blood clots in the veins, New Zealand scientists warn.

Blood clots in the veins are a disease in which a blood clot forms in the deep veins in the leg. This blood clot can be fatal if it blocks a blood vessel in the lungs . People who travel long-distance planes are more likely to suffer from this disease because they do not have enough space to comfortably stretch their legs. In addition, those who undergo major surgeries are also at high risk of disease because they are less able to walk or have difficulty moving their legs and arms.
