In one study, 30.3% of people with primary and secondary education and 19.2% of those with high school or higher education had LBP [13].

Introduction: This study analyzes factors influencing low back pain in patients admitted to the physiotherapy unit of an education and research hospital. Methods: The study sample included 102 patients who applied to the physiotherapy unit and volunteered to join the study. The data were collected using a 23-items questionnaire created by the authors based on a review of the literature. The data were entered into the SPSS Program For comparisons, p values below 0.05 were deemed to be statistically significant. Results: The mean age of the participants was 46.7±14.4 years. By occupation, low back pain was most common among housewives. Of the patients who suffered from lower back pain, 57.8% were overweight or obese. Of those experiencing lower back pain, 73.5% were standing for long time periods, and 67.6% were lifting heavy loads. Of the patients, 69.6% had lower back pain in their families, and 29.4% of the family members with lower back pain were their mothers. Of the patients, 70.6% received drug therapy for the pain. The frequency of low back pain among patients who did not receive drug therapy was higher than that of the patients who received pain medications (p<0.05). Of the patients who had low back pain attacks 11 times or more in a year, the percentage of smokers was 66.7%, while this rate was 35.7% among nonsmokers (p<0.05). The increase in low back pain with body mass index was not statistically significant (p>0.05). Conclusion: Patients applied to the hospital due to low back pain report lifting heavy loads or prolonged standing. Smoking increases the frequency of low back pain. Patients with low back pain also tend to have family members with the condition. With appropriate measures to reduce risk factors, the frequency of low back pain, which hinders daily life activities, can be reduced.

“…In this study, the smoking rate was 38%. In the literature, just as there are studies showing a correlation between smoking and low back pain (21,23,24,25), there are studies showing no correlation (15,20,26). Studies proposing no effect of smoking on low back pain give reasons such as nicotine's analgesic effect and depression-reducing effects of nicotine; studies stating that there is an association indicate that smoking increases the risk of low back pain incidence due to disrupting nutrition of the vertebral disk, making the disk more susceptible to external factors, and reducing blood perfusion in the spine and muscles due to vasoconstriction caused by nicotine in cigarettes (23).…”

Amaç: Dünya nüfusunun %80'inden fazlası hayatlarının herhangi bir anında bel ağrısı bildirmektedir. Bel ağrısı, sağlık çalışanlarında yaygın bir morbidite nedenidir. Sağlık çalışanları, zorlu fiziksel iş yükleri, ergonomik sorunları nedeni ile bel ağrısı açısından yüksek riskli bir gruptadırlar. Bu çalışmada, sağlık çalışanlarında bel ağrısı ve etkilerinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç veYöntemler: Çalışma 2017 Nisan ayında Şişli Hamidiye Etfal Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi çalışanlarına yapılmıştır. Katılımcılara tarafımızca hazırlanan anket formu ve Oswetry Skalası yüz yüze sorgulama yöntemi ile uygulanmıştır. İstatistiksel analizde SPSS programı kullanılmıştır.Bulgular: Katılımcılardan bel ağrısı olanların oranı %39,16 (n=103) idi. Katılımcılar bel ağrısı olan ve olmayan olarak iki gruba ayrılmıştır. Yaş, cinsiyet, beden kitle indeksi (BKI) ortalaması, BKI sınıflama, eğitim durumu, sigara içme durumu ve meslekteki çalışma süresi açısından her iki grup arasında istatistiksel anlamlı fark bulunmuştur (p<0.005). Bel ağrısı olan bireylerin Oswestry Skalası puan ortalaması 19,38±11,17 idi. Katılımcılar etkilenim düzeyine göre hafif etkilenim (%0-40) ve ciddi etkilenim (≥%40) olarak gruplara ayrılarak ilişkili faktörler incelenmiştir. Ortalama BKI, BKI sınıflama, meslek ile anlamlı ilişki saptanmıştır (p<0.005).Sonuç: Sağlık çalışanlarının beşte ikisinde bel ağrısı saptanmıştır. Sağlık personellerinin periyodik muayeneleri esnasında bel ağrısı sorgulanmalıdır. Kadın cinsiyette, lise ve altı eğitim düzeyine sahiplerde, meslekte daha uzun süre geçirenlerde, sigara içenlerde, fazla kilolu ve obezlerde sık olması sebebiyle bu gruplar daha ayrıntılı incelenmeli ve sigara bırakma, kilo verme ve kas güçlendirmesi için yapılabilecek egzersiz önerilerinde bulunulmalıdır.
