CONCLUSIONS: Most painful areas of participants using desktop computers were upper back, neck, lower back and shoulder respectively, and the pain in these regions affected ADLs negatively. These pain mostly occurred after current job and these individuals experience more intense pain. Ergonomic approaches could reduce WMSD and make them more independent in ADLs and prevent chronicity.
