Brief Summary

Experiencing an episode of musculoskeletal (MSK) pain in young age significantly increases the risk of developing MSK pain later in life. Consequently, knowledge on modifiable risk factors early in life is needed. In this prospective cohort study, data from the population-based Nord-Trøndelag Health Study (HUNT) will be used to investigate whether a combination of lifestyle factors in adolescence is associated with persistent MSK pain in young adulthood.
