FIGURE 1
Musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders are most one of the most reported medical conditions. Not surprisingly, as people age, conditions such as hearing and vision problems, cancer, and heart disease become more common. Still, across all adult age categories, musculoskeletal conditions are either the most commonly reported medical conditions (among those under 65) or second most commonly reported (among those 65 and older).
