Brief Summary:
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a brief, reassuring pre-visit message affects patients' expectations and planned follow-up care in adults with common musculoskeletal conditions. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Does reading a brief reassurance message before a clinic visit change how interested patients are in additional care, such as follow-up visits, tests, injections, or surgery?
* Does the message affect whether patients actually schedule follow-up care after the visit?
Researchers will compare participants who receive the pre-visit reassurance message to those who receive usual care to see if the message changes patients' enthusiasm for care or their follow-up decisions.
Participants will:
1. Read a short, easy-to-understand message about musculoskeletal symptoms and options for care (for those in the intervention group)
2. Complete a brief questionnaire rating their interest in follow-up visits, tests, injections, or surgery
3. Have their scheduled follow-up care recorded after the clinic visit
