Pain is far from anecdotal. In professional orchestras, its prevalence over 12 months is between 41% and 93%."An elite athlete has a full training staff they can turn to. An elite musician, on the other hand, usually only has their general practitioner — and that's assuming the musician even reaches out to get treatment to begin with.
"When faced with pain, the musician's initial reaction is denial," said Maugue."The pain is often attributed to something other than the physicality of playing their instrument. They then turn to self-care, to colleagues. It's only much later that they consult a medical professional."
