Musculoskeletal pain will often occur with trauma and is most common when we spend too long in one posture (sitting or standing). Similarly the amount of time spent looking at a screen (including a phone) increases the chances of neck shoulder and arm pain. The chances then increase considerably if we add stress of any type (even busy stress). You can avoid this type of muscular / soft tissue pain if you subscribe to regular activity … walk, jog, cycle, gym, yoga, Pilates, etc.
