Recent Advances in Musculoskeletal Pain and Its Management

Dear Colleagues,

Musculoskeletal disorders continue to be one of the leading causes of years lived with disability. The evidence-based management of people with musculoskeletal disorders has developed significantly thanks to the contribution of basic and applied sciences combined with clinical reasoning to support the action of the clinician for the evaluation and management of complex disorders of the musculoskeletal system. Nevertheless, the effective management of people with musculoskeletal disorders remains challenging.

This Special Issue in the Journal of Clinical Medicine aims to highlight recent advances which have improved the understanding of different assessments and/or innovative and personalised treatments for the management of musculoskeletal pain. Authors are encouraged to submit their original research including systematic reviews and meta-analyses, consensus statements, clinical trials, study protocol, observational studies, and experimental work which present recent advances in musculoskeletal pain and its management.
