Welcome to the Musicians' Injuries FAQ section of the Musicians' Clinics web site. Here you will find answers to commonly asked questions related to hearing loss. To ask a question that has not already been posted, please fill out the form on the bottom of this page and I will answer it next time the page it updated. Most music-realted health problems come from the interaction between the musician and their instrument or the musician and the environment. Too much force, too many repetitions, and too much force or volume can all result in injury.
Musicians tend to be stuck in one position and repetitive strain injuries can occur.
Diet is obviously critical to maintaining optimal health. Many 24 hour supermarkets stock easy to prepare frozen foods that can be heated up in the nightclub's microwave. Try to keep caffeine and alcohol to an acceptable minimum- having two beers and not four. Smoking is obviously a no-no. Anybody working in a bar is getting way more smoke than their personal limit of second hand smoke, to begin with.
