Musculoskeletal disorders primarily involve the muscles, bones, and joints. Some common examples include:
1. **Low back pain**
2. **Joint injuries (e.g., sprains, strains)**
3. **Repetitive strain injuries (e.g., carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis)**
4. **Neck pain**
5. **Arthritis**
Given Alex's situation, he works long hours at the computer but practices good posture and limits screen time in the evening. However, he is still at risk for certain computer-related health problems. From the options provided, the two that apply are:
1. **Musculoskeletal problems** - Despite his good posture, prolonged computer use can still lead to muscle strain and pain.
2. **Vision problems** - Prolonged screen time can lead to conditions like eye strain or computer vision syndrome.
Headaches are indeed a possibility too, particularly tension headaches related to muscle strain, but the question asks for two primary risks that align most closely with musculoskeletal and vision-related concerns.
