From nurses to firefighters,
from kids to older folks - and all of us in between - work-related
stress is stressful. It affects our sense of
pain and often elicits times of back
pain and neck pain and back-related and neck-related pain. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center is here
to help suppress the impact of work-related stress as
much as possible. Manahawkin back pain and neck pain
patients bring everything – including their stress – with them to
Manahawkin Chiropractic Center. 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 immune
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 get
job-related stress. The pressures of grades and friends and news
and learning problems get to them. Adolescents get low back pain, too. Depression, anxiety, coercion, uncomfortable
relationships, extreme academic pressures, and disappointing
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.
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
caused 11.8% of nursing care facility workers’ reporting
that chronic low back pain interfered with their work. (4) It
is a rare person whose job is pure joy
and stress-free. The rest of us find ways to manage. Your Manahawkin
chiropractor is here for you.
