WORK-RELATED STRESS
Work-related stress messes with us. It gets our attention through pain. None of us is immune 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 have job-related stress. The pressures of grades and peers and news and learning issues 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.
