San Jose Stress and Its Contribution to Back Pain

From firefighters to nurses, from kids to older folks - and all of us in between - work-related stress is stressful. It affects our experience of pain and often elicits sessions of back pain and neck pain and back-related and neck-related pain. Chiropractic Solutions is here to help suppress the impact of work-related stress as much as possible. San Jose back pain and neck pain patients bring everything – including their stress – with them to Chiropractic Solutions. You can, too! Together, we will handle work-stress and back and neck pain.

WORK-RELATED STRESS

Work-related stress messes with us. It gets our attention through pain. None of us is resistant to stress, not even a kid! A kid’s work is being a kid and attending school on the journey 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 set college students up 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 noted. 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 found that psychological factors and fear-avoidance behaviors contributed to 11.8% of nursing care facility workers’ reporting that chronic low back pain disrupted their work. (4) It is a rare person whose job is pure joy and stress-free. The rest of us find ways to cope. Your San Jose chiropractor is here for you.
