Exercise for chronic musculoskeletal pain: time to prescribe with precision bmjopensem.bmj.com/content/11/4/e… via @belavyprof et al

Final Takeaway Once reporting and review standards improve, we can move beyond “some exercise is better than none” toward tailored, evidence-driven, safe, and clinically meaningful exercise prescriptions for each MSK pain presentation.

The Path Forward A 3-step approach for a stronger evidence base: 1️⃣ Integrate reporting frameworks from design to publication 2️⃣ Strengthen systematic review methodology 3️⃣ Enforce reporting compliance across the ecosystem Together, this enables precision exercise prescription

Chronic musculoskeletal (MSK) pain affects 1.7 billion people globally and costs hundreds of billions annually. Exercise helps ✅ ⚠️but: evidence base is too imprecise to implement it well What do 🤔 ➡️Editorial in @BMJOpenSEM bmjopensem.bmj.com/content/11/4/e… By Nitin Arora 🙏👏

➡️ Moving forward, if sleep is important for a patient, other treatments need to be considered and evaluated 🚩 🙏 co-authors! - Tanya Thwaite - Emma Craige - @NiamhMundell - @ScottTags - Kate Vincent - Sally Ferguson - Madeline Sprajcer - @PatrickOwenPhD - Grace Vincent
