WHO Definition of work-related
musculoskeletal disorders 2:
Many others are less well defined:
E.g. myalgic conditions involving pain,
discomfort, numbness and tingling
sensations throughout the neck shoulders,
upper limbs and lower back.
These types of disorder, that are sometimes
called non-specific WMSDs, often cannot be
diagnosed with respect to a clinical pathology
but they may still result in physical
impairment and disability.
