From firefighters to nurses,
from children to older folks - and all of us in between - work-related
stress is stressful. It affects our experience of
pain and often triggers sessions of back
pain and neck pain and back-related and neck-related pain. Back And Neck Care Center is here
to help squash the power of work-related stress whenever possible. Severna Park back pain and neck pain
patients bring everything – including their stress – with them to
Back And Neck Care Center. You can, too! Together, we will manage
work-stress and back and neck pain.
WORK-RELATED STRESS
Work-related stress messes with us. It gets our attention via pain. None of us is resistant
to stress, not even a kid! A kid’s job is being a kid and going to
school on the path to adulthood. Along the way, kids have
job-related stress. The pressures of grades and peers and news
and learning issues get to them. Adolescents get low back pain, too. Depression, anxiety, coercion, uncomfortable
relationships, extreme academic pressures, and unsatisfactory
school lives may all set college students up
for chronic low back pain. (1) 11% of firefighters reported moderate to
extremely severe work-related stress. 40% described
musculoskeletal symptoms with back pain being the most mentioned.
More stress is linked to more such symptoms. (2)
Trash collectors reported back pain issues – upper back
pain 89%, shoulder pain 81%, wrist/hand pain 79%, neck pain 68% - which translated
into higher psychological demands for them. (3) Researchers
discovered that psychological factors and fear-avoidance behaviors
contributed to 11.8% of nursing care facility workers’ reporting
that chronic low back pain interfered with their work. (4) It’s a rare person whose job is pure happiness
and stress-free. The rest of us find ways to cope. Your Severna Park
chiropractor is here for you.
