Health Post: Hippocket Syndrome


Watch your wallets, guys! They may be causing you unbearable pain and that is even if you have plenty of cash. Physiotherapists suspect that men sitting with their wallets in their back pocket risk damaging the sciatic nerve. This condition is said to be a form of sciatic neuropathy and because of its common occurence is called hippocket syndrome or wallet neuropathy. To avoid it, perhaps, you would consider carrying a handbag!

Thanks and welcome!
absolutely no hand bag for me. I just keep the money in my jeans without using a wallet. It also looks stupid with a wallet in the backpocket.
