This article is about pain in the muscles and bones (musculoskeletal) when sitting in a wheelchair. Wheelchair users are at high risk of experiencing these pains while being dependent on their wheelchairs for their way of transportation. The research in this article goes into how musculoskeletal goes into wheelchair use and the different types of pain, risk factors and management that these individuals go through. Their findings were that shoulder pain was the most common following neck, elbow, wrist, hands and lower back. I have used this information when looking into what kind of wheelchair seat covers I want to create. I want high quality that will not cause any uncomfortable friction.
