Abstract
  • Musculoskeletal conditions are the leading contributor to disability worldwide, with low back pain being the single leading cause of disability globally.
  • Musculoskeletal conditions and injuries are not just conditions of older age; they are prevalent across the life-course. Between one in three and one in five people(including children) live with a musculoskeletal pain condition.
  • Musculoskeletal conditions significantly limit mobility and dexterity, leading to early retirement from work, reduced accumulated wealth and reduced ability to participate in social roles.
  • The greatest proportion of non-cancer persistent pain conditions is accounted for by musculoskeletal conditions.
  • Highly prevalent among multi-morbidity health states, musculoskeletal conditions are prevalent in one third to one-half of multi-morbidity presentations, particularly in older people.
  • Musculoskeletal conditions are commonly linked with depression and increase the risk of developing other chronic health conditions.

 


  
Notes

The highest contributor to global disability (accounting for 16% of all years lived with disability), and lower back pain remained the single leading cause of disability since it was first measured in 1990 (Global, Regional, and National Incidence, Prevalence, and Years Lived With Disability for 354 Diseases and Injuries for 195 Countries and Territories, 1990-2017: A systematic analysis for the global burden of disease study 2017 2018)
