Job Strain, Sleep Disturbances, and Back Pain.
Using data from the Stockholm Public Health Cohort surveys from 2006 and 2010, researchers have determined that a physically active job, high job strain, and sleep disturbances increase the risk for developing troublesome low back pain. The findings may suggest that a reduction in job demands and improvement in sleep quality could help prevent or reduce one’s lower back pain risk.
