Deaths from musculoskeletal diseases per million persons in 2012 General population<unk> s are an increasing healthcare issue globally, being the second leading cause of disability. For example, in the U.S. there were more than 16 million strains and sprains treated in 2004, and the total cost for treating<unk> s is estimated to be more than $125 billion per year. In 2006 approximately 14.3% of the Canadian population was living with a disability, with nearly half due to<unk> s. Neck pain is one of the most common complaints, with about one fifth of adults worldwide reporting pain annually. According to the Labour Force Survey 2019/20 carried out by the UK's Health and Safety Executive (HSE) 8.9 Million working days were lost due to work-related<unk> s and 480.000 workers suffering from this. Workplace Most workplace<unk>  episodes involve multiple parts of the body.<unk> s are the most frequent health complaint by European, United States and Asian Pacific workers. and the third leading reason for disability and early retirement in the U.S. The incidence rate for<unk> s among the working population in 2014 was 31.9 newly diagnosed<unk> s per 10,000 full-time workers. In 2014, the median days away from work due to<unk> s was 13, and there were 10.4 cases per 10,000 full-time workers in which an<unk>  caused a worker to be away from work for 31 or more days.<unk> s are widespread in many occupations, including those with heavy biomechanical load like construction and factory work, and those with lighter loads like office work. The transportation and warehousing industries have the highest incidence rate of<unk> s, with an incidence rate of 89.9 cases per 10,000 full-time workers. Healthcare, manufacturing, agriculture, wholesale trade, retail, and recreation industries all have incidence rates above 35 per 10,000 full-time workers. For example, a national survey of U.S. nurses found that 38% reported an<unk>  in the prior year, mainly lower back injury. The neck and back are the most common sites of<unk> s in workers, followed by the upper limbs and lower limbs. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that 31.8 new cases of<unk> s per 10,000 full-time workers per year are due to overexertion, bodily reaction, or repetitive motions. In 2013, members of the United States Army Medical Command Band (now the 323rd Army Band) were the center of a study which concluded that musicians have a high rate of<unk> s and that it exceeds percentages in the general population.
