WORK-RELATED STRESS
Work-related stress messes with us. It reveals itself through pain. None of us is resistant to stress, not even a kid! A kid’s work is being a kid and going to school on the way to adulthood. Along the way, kids experience job-related stress. The pressures of grades and peers and news and learning problems get to them. Adolescents get 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 work-related stress. 40% reported musculoskeletal symptoms with back pain being the most mentioned.
