However, there are already several <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theatlantic.com\/news\/archive\/2016\/07\/pokemon-go-health-warning\/492899\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">doctors and physiotherapists who are concerned about this situation and warn against the\u00a0dangers<\/a> of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.spine-health.com\/blog\/latest-cause-neck-pain-pokemon-go\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;Pokemon Go Neck&#8221;<\/a> as many other risks that excessive use of Pok\u00e9mon Go can produce to the health of their patients.<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/go-UKdfStHg\" width=\"600\" height=\"480\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/center>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Just like what we already said about the <a href=\"\/?p=15348\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dangers of whatsapp to the neck, fingers and wrists<\/a>, the Pok\u00e9mon Go app is another of the dangers that can cause injuries coming from the use of mobile phones or tablets, mainly due to the time it is used, <strong>which in some cases exceeds 8 hours<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>According to Kenneth K.

There are already \u00a0some <strong>cases of \u00a0muscle pain complaints mainly in the legs and arms<\/strong>, due to the use of the Pok\u00e9mon Go app.<\/p>\n<p>For the same reason, the physiotherapist Jo\u00e3o Carlos Rodrigues says: &#8220;<em>Of course we will not find in this game such a guilty as running or paddle for the development of muscle-tendon injuries, but it is something to keep in mind for their impact on the physical health of the users. Tendons whose point of greatest stress had always been standing up from the chair, now will have to endure long walks and mechanical requirements.<\/em>&#8220;.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16156\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16156\" style=\"width: 321px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ionclinics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pescoco-pokemon.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16156\" src=\"https:\/\/ionclinics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pescoco-pokemon.jpg\" width=\"321\" height=\"203\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16156\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Pokemon Go Neck&#8221;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Now we come to the conclusion that, even if they seem insignificant, some of the movements that we make using the Pok\u00e9mon Go game are crucial to our physical condition.
