by Marijke Durning, RN on May 19th, 2008

drummer_nc Quick. Name 10 professions that you think would have the highest likelihood of causing chronic pain. Did you list firefighter? It made the list. Postal carrier? Nope. How about nurse? No, but nurse’s aide did. What about construction workers? Yes. Custodians or janitors? No. firefighter_nc

It’s interesting the perceptions we have about what jobs  could cause pain. The ABC article, Killer constWorker_ncJobs: 10 Painful Professions, lists some jobs you would expect to be at the top of the list, but some that make you kind of scratch your head in wonder.

What would you put on the list of jobs that cause chronic pain?
