Recently, there has been some discussion about the alignment problems. The purpose of the present research is to investigate the alignment issues that may arise because of extended sitting.

“…The risk factors for increased Q-angle include ankle sprains, dynamic balance issues, patella instability, anterior cruciate ligament injuries, overuse injuries, osteoarthritis of the knee, chondromalacia patella, patella dislocation and subluxation, and patella-femoral pain PEP. Chondromalacia, patella Alta, and patella-femoral pain PEP are further conditions that could reduce Q-angle 4,5 . The human foot exhibits a system of three arches that can be flattened and slightly recoiled by upward pressure, bearing flexibility.…”
