Why should wheelchairs be avoided by young population?(a) It damages the neural system of the body(b) It causes inflammation in the GI track(c) It causes low blood pressure(d) It damages the bones and skeletal musclesThis question was addressed to me during an internship interview.This intriguing question originated from Rehabilitative Devices in division Rehabilitation and Recovery of Clinical Science

Answer»

Correct option is (d) It damages the bones and skeletal muscles

Easiest explanation: The bones and the skeletal muscles function well when pressure is applied to them. It allows for better ABSORPTION of NUTRIENTS. When a young person uses a WHEEL chair for a long time, their bones and muscles stop absorbing the nutrients and the BODY becomes weak. Long use of wheelchairs by any population can cause other problems as well as the POOLING of blood, pressure sores etc.
