    Author: Steinmetz A.
    Journal: Laryngorhinootologie; 2023 Feb; 102(2):100-103. PubMed ID: 36543224.
    Abstract:
    Playing-related musculoskeletal disorders are frequently found in the upper extremety and the spine. Moreover, orofacial pain syndromes and craniomandibular dysfunctions are important in upper string players and wind players. The treatment of musicians is based on a diagnostic process including the evaluation of specific musical aspects, a functional manual medicine examination and an evaluation of postural and movement characteristics while playing the musical instrument. Instrumentalspiel-assoziierte muskuloskelettale Schmerzsyndrome betreffen oft die obere Extremität und Wirbelsäule. Darüber hinaus sind auch orofaziale Schmerzsyndrome bzw. kraniomandibuläre Dysfunktionen insbesondere bei hohen Streichern und Bläsern zu beobachten.
