“…Studies evaluating aerobic, 26 ballroom, 25 and Zumba ®15,27 dance indicate that age does not predict dance-related injury. Despite these, and our own, findings, Miletic et al 28 demonstrated a moderate relationship between increasing age and lower back pain prevalence in ballroom dance. In the current sample of salsa dancers, injury risk increased with increasing BMI.…”

“…6,7,28 In one study, the knee of competitive male dancers aged from 15 to 17 years was the most frequent pain region with 44.7% of the total, and the second most frequent pain region with 49.3% in the age group above 25 years. 11 Even in male ballet dancers, the knee has been found to be more frequently affected than in females (female: 11.5%; male: 15.2%). 29 Miletic et al 6 cited the turnout performed in rapid rhythms by standard and Latin male dancers as a cause of hip problems.…”

Musculoskeletal Pain in Latin American Formation Dance: Localization, Assessment, and Related Behavior

2020

Competitive Latin formation dance, a form of dancesport, places extreme physical demands on dancers that can cause pain. Due to the sex-specific requirements of dancesport, sex-specific differences in pain are probable. The aim of this study was to analyze pain with regard to prevalence, localization, perception, assessment, and related behavior in male and female Latin formation dancers. The quantitative cross-sectional observational study was carried out with 41 female and 31 male dancers of a national premier league by use of an anonymous online survey, with 3- and 12-month pain intervals being recorded. Of all participating subjects, 33 females and 26 males confirmed having been in pain during the most recent 3 months and provided detailed information on the pain factors being studied. In order to operationalize pain characteristics, existing pain assessment measures were adapted for dancers. For the most painful body regions, accompanying symptoms, pain intensity, pain perception, and pain evaluation were surveyed. The pain behavior section included questions about trusted persons and dancing despite pain, as well as pain management strategies. As to pain localization, several parts of the lower extremity (hip joint, groin, ankle joint, forefoot, and toes) were significantly more affected in females than in males (p < 0.05). Sensory and affective pain perception ranged from "hardly" to "moderate," with female dancers being more severely affected. Almost 80% of each sex continued dancing despite pain. Intrinsic motives and solidarity with the dance team were most often given as reasons for this behavior. Primarily, sex-specific physical requirements seemed to be most relevant in the occurrence of pain; in addition, pain assessment characteristics and personal behavior were related to attitudes regarding pain and injury. Therefore, in addition to sex, motivational and socio-cultural factors should be considered in future studies of this subject.

“…68 This contrasts results in gendered sports like rhythmic gymnasts, Dance Sport, and similar disciplines where there is an increased their risk of LBP with age. [69][70][71][72] We were unable to determine a conclusive link between certain ages and risks for LBP/LBI from the results of this study. Studies did not specify the age range of those dancers who either became injured or had endured/still endure back pain; demographics for the general population were provided, but none for those dancers that actually endured LBP or LBI.…”

Background: Anecdotally, low back pain is a common complaint for many dancers; a comparison across recent research is needed to support or disprove this theory across genres. Purpose: To determine the prevalence of low back pain and low back injury in ballet, modern, and hiphop dancers through a systematic literature review. A secondary goal was to identify trends amongst dance genres, level of mastery, gender, and age, if possible. Study Design: Literature review. Methods: PRISMA search strategy terms between November 2017 and March 2018 with an ADA grading evaluation and a modified Newcastle-Ottawa Risk of Bias assessment. Twenty-five ballet articles, 5 modern, and 3 hip-hop met the inclusion criteria. Results: Prevalence of low back pain or injury seems relatively high in ballet dance; little research exists on the prevalence of back pain in hip-hop or modern dancers. Twenty-five of the 33 studies relied on a questionnaire to gather their data. Conclusion: Ballet dancers are at risk for low back pain or injury independent of gender, age or level of mastery; there is not enough evidence to draw any conclusions about modern dancers or hip-hop dancers and their relationship to low back pain/injury currently. Future studies need a higher level of evidence and a reduced risk of bias.What is known about the subject: There are several injury studies on ballet dancers, but they report 'low back pain' or 'injury' as a footnote to other injuries. Few studies use modern and hip-hop dancers as participants. The research on ballet dancers fluctuates wildly in reported prevalence, and differing reporting methods prevent direct comparison. What this study adds to existing knowledge: This study illuminates the dearth of research, especially those of high-quality and non-ballet participants. This study aims to call attention to this gap and promote vigorous scholarship for related research moving forward.
