Repetitive Stress Injuries on the Job

Helping Injured Workers Throughout Taunton, Bristol County & All of Massachusetts

If you use any part of your body in a similar, repetitive motion every day, you can suffer a repetitive stress injury. Whether you are a clerical worker, a manual laborer, or a health care worker, you may be at risk of suffering repetitive stress injuries. While these injuries often are thought of as carpal tunnel syndrome, they also involve a number of other types of injuries, such as back strain and damage to fingers, wrists, elbows, shoulders, knees, joints, and/or hips. Our workers' comp lawyers can fight for you every step of the way in proving your case and getting you maximum benefits and compensation as soon as possible.

At our firm, we can be your sword and shield in dealing with your repetitive stress injury, including:

• Carpal tunnel syndrome, also known as computeritis, involves painful inflammation and swelling of the hands, fingers, and/or wrists resulting from overuse, usually due to typing too long at an awkward angle.
• Tennis elbow is a condition resulting in pain and tenderness of the outer part of the elbow, and can occur not only from sports, but from the repetitive arm motions of mechanics or painters.
• Rotator cuff tears might occur when one's work involves repetitive overhead motion and/or lifting.
• Tendinitis develops when a tendon, or the sheath surrounding a tendon, becomes inflamed.
• Bursitis involves the inflammation of bursae, which provide cushions between tendons and bones throughout your body.
