Increased abdominal pressure can lead to stiffness in the spine and added stress on the back. Tight belts can exacerbate this pressure, resulting in nerve compression, particularly affecting the femoral cutaneous nerve. This compression can cause not only back pain but also abdominal pain and discomfort, affecting digestive health. Evidence suggests that consistently wearing a tight belt can significantly heighten the risk of chronic back pain by disrupting spinal stability and altering abdominal muscle function. Visible signs, such as red marks on the skin after removing a belt, may indicate its tightness and potential for harm.
