| Research Abstract |
This study aimed to clarify prevalence of chronic pain in 14,194Japanese adults with a self-administered questionnaire. Of them, 39% reported chronic pain. The prevalence was higher in older people, and in women. Site-specific analysis showed that the prevalence of chronic pain in the back, knee, and shoulder was relatively high, suggesting musculoskeletal disorders may play an important role.
