National-School-Backpack-Awareness-Day

Wearing a heavy backpack over time can lead to serious chronic back pain and injury. Even carrying a heavy bag around for a short period of time can cause significant health problems. National Backpack Awareness Day is an opportunity to talk about this common issue.
Remember this four-step process to save you a lot of pain:
Select the right backpack.
Pack it correctly.
Pick up your backpack by bending and lifting it at the knees.
Adjust the backpack while you’re wearing it.
