More Movement, Less Bodily Pain? Findings From a Large, Representative Multi-District Aging Study in Ghana

The association of physical activity (PA) with pain has been characterized. Although the literature largely comes from high-income countries, the mechanistic pathways underlying this association remain unknown, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). We aim to examine the association between meeting the World Health Organization (WHO) PA guidelines and pain among aging adults and identify the factors that may mediate this association.
