Fort Wayne Stress and Its Contribution to Back Pain
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 times of back pain and neck pain and back-related and neck-related pain. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic is here to help suppress the power of work-related stress whenever possible. Fort Wayne back pain and neck pain patients carry everything – including their stress – with them to Aaron Chiropractic Clinic. You can, too! Together, we will deal with work-stress and back and neck pain.
WORK-RELATED STRESS
Work-related stress messes with us. It reveals itself 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 way 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 find themselves with low back pain, too. Depression, anxiety, coercion, uncomfortable relationships, extreme academic pressures, and unsatisfactory school lives may all put college students at risk for chronic low back pain. (1) 11% of firefighters reported moderate to extremely severe stress on the job. 40% described musculoskeletal symptoms with back pain being the most mentioned. More stress related 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 stressed them out more. (3) Researchers discovered that psychological factors and fear-avoidance behaviors contributed to 11.8% of nursing care facility workers’ stating that chronic low back pain interfered with their work. (4) It is an unusual person whose job is pure joy and stress-free. The rest of us find ways to cope. Your Fort Wayne chiropractor is by your side.
