Answer 1

He suffers from back and neck pain every now and then

Explanation:

Normally a software programmer of any field needs to code extensively. The room for physical work is very negligible or zero.

Software programmers fix issue, write code, attend client calls, coordinate with multiple team members. So they entirely use their brains and work.

So they have use keyboard and mouse extensively and often they forget to blink their eyes, relax their fingers during their extensive use, do proper exercise to relax their muscles and also improper posture while working on the computer.

Because of these factors, software programmers suffer from back and neck pain.
