Back Pain Facts and the Military

Fifty-three percent (53%) of the injured soldiers who were medically evacuated from

Iraq, had lower back pain. Battle injuries accounted for only 17% of evacuations.

(October issue of the journal Anesthesia & Analgesia)

The most common ailments — experienced by 30% of veterans who return from Iraq and

Afghanistan — are musculoskeletal problems, primarily joint and back pain.

(Department of Veterans Affairs)

The high percentage of soldiers who leave Iraq because of back pain is disturbing. (LtCol

Steven Cohen, Army Reserves and pain specialist at the Johns Hopkins School of

Medicine in Baltimore).

Four out of five Americans will suffer from disabling back pain during their lifetimes,

(NIH)

Americans spend $86 billion a year on spine treatments (up 65% in a decade), about the

same as we spend treating cancer, according to a major study published in the Journal of

the American Medical Association, yet our backs are not getting better. The percentage

of back pain suffers has increased and more of them are reporting physical, social and

work limitations. (JAMA – February 13, 2008)

More than 25% of American men and women experience daily pain and pain is estimated

to cost the economy over $60 billion a year in lost productivity, according to a Stony

Brook (NY) University Medical Center random survey conducted among nearly 4,000

respondents. (The Lancet – May 3, 2008)

An estimated 1.2 million spinal surgeries are performed in the U.S. each year, and,

according to the National Center for Health Statistics, more than 300,000 of them are

spinal fusions, at an average cost of approximately $60,000 each.
