E-Sports, which attract great attention in the media and social networks, brings health problems and some risks, depending on the attractiveness of games and the time spent in the digital world. When the investigators examine the literature, although different studies are showing that E-Athletes experience pain and sleep problems, no study examines the factors related to pain and sleep quality together. Therefore, our study was planned to examine the factors associated with pain, fatigue, and sleep quality in E-Athletes.
