Abstract

Secondary school teachers represent middle-vocational groups that appear to have a high prevalence of neck and shoulder pain (NSP) and low back pain (LBP). Epidemiological data for NSP and LBP among secondary school teachers are limited. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of NSPs and LBPs among secondary school teachers. The study was directed towards the prevalence of neck, shoulder, and low back pain among secondary school teachers of age 25 to 45 years in Mandian, Abbottabad. In a cross-sectional study of teachers in seven secondary schools in Mandian, Abbottabad, information was gathered on participants through demographics, work characteristics, occupational factors, and musculoskeletal symptoms and pain. A demographic scale was used to collect data regarding demographics. The responses from the patients were recorded, stored, and then analyzed on IBM SPSS version 25.
