Been dealing with back pain lately, and my physio has advised me to take a break from my desk job for a few days to help fix it. The problem is, I’m hesitant to take leave because I don’t want it to seem like I’m trying to slack off, especially when I’ll have to explain it to my boss. Feeling stuck—any advice on how to handle this without it affecting how I’m perceived?

Take the leave and don't think trust me if you want to continue working for a long time. If you push your pain back it will come back with bigger issues that won't be cured by few days then. So it is better to rest now.

Wahi toxic culture
Humare yaha bhi 1 din ke leave ke liye 1 mahina approval process

Don't your organization have a well being day concept? Health comes first. Irrespective of what others feel and perceive. it's your core responsibility to look after your health. Go ahead, show the medical reasoning and take as many leaves as you need. Change your lifestyle with a more active and healthier approach. All the best.
DM me if you need any further help.

toxicity level 😓

First, get yourself an ergonomic chair—it’ll make a big difference in supporting your back. But don’t delay taking the leave! If you wait, the pain will only get worse, and it might affect your work even more in the long run. Just explain the situation honestly to your boss.

Start lifting weights.. i do that and now i can sit continuously
Deadlift is the answer 🔥
