    AbstractPrevious studies have shown that subjective symptoms from the musculo-skeletal system are common among fishermen. In the present study, physical signs of malfunction were also found to be common in this profession. The co-existence of physical signs and subjective symptoms differed greatly between different joint systems, and the correlation was in some locations very low. The prevalence of physical health problems other than orthopaedic problems was low. Isometric lifting strength was high compared to results reported on other vocational groups.
