Overview

Back pain refers to discomfort or pain occurring anywhere along the spine, from the neck to the lower back, and represents a common musculoskeletal complaint across populations. Research published in Aging Research And Healthcare addresses multiple dimensions of this condition, including treatment approaches for chronic low back pain such as high-dose capsaicin patches, the relationship between osteoarthritis and falls risk in older adults, and the role of health literacy in osteoarthritis self-management. The journal has examined musculoskeletal pain patterns in specific populations, including physical education students experiencing neck, shoulder, and low back pain, as well as chronic pain outcomes following medical procedures such as lung transplantation. Additional research explores interventional techniques including sacral injection approaches and investigates non-pharmacological pain management strategies, such as music-induced analgesia through endogenous opioid production. The journal also considers broader contextual factors affecting pain experiences, including the psychological consequences of emotion repression on physical health. This body of work reflects the multifaceted nature of back pain as both an acute and chronic condition affecting quality of life, mobility, and overall health outcomes across diverse patient populations.
