    Abstract

    Many working populations experience morbidity due to work-related musculoskeletal diseases (WMSDs). Not only can WMSDs negatively impact employees' quality of life and productivity, but they also account for almost 40% of all expenses linked to treating work-related injuries. Occupation-specific variations in WMSD conditions are thought to arise from the complex interplay between many risk variables. The health care industry is one of the least researched despite its considerable exposure to WMSDs. Much of the prior research on WMSDs among healthcare professionals was conducted only on specific groups, such as nurses, PTs, dentists, etc. So, the purpose of this research was to investigate the WMSDs experienced by five different healthcare workers in a tertiary care hospital. In order to determine who is at the greatest risk for developing WMSDs, the study analyzed the incidence of these disorders among the five categories. Every condition that hinders a person's mobility or mobility at work is addressed here. When this condition is brought on or made worse by one's job, it is referred to as a "work-related musculoskeletal disease" (MSD). Yet, there are a plethora of issues affecting the muscles, bones, and joints that may have an effect on work or be made worse by employment but for which there is no apparent causal relationship. In the medical field, these illnesses are referred to as rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMDs). We'll call them RMDs from here on out.
