Repetitive Trauma Injuries | Romanucci & Blandin
There are several different names that repetitive trauma injuries are called, including repetitive stress injuries, repetitive motion injuries, cumulative trauma disorders, repetitive strain injuries and regional musculoskeletal disorders. These terms all describe an injury that is caused by repeating a specific task or action. A high number of repetitive trauma injuries are caused by a repetitive task that is done at work which allows the victims to file for workers’ compensation benefits.
The most common types of repetitive trauma injuries include:
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Chronic knee injuries
- Chronic neck pain
- Rotator cuff injuries
- Spinal disc injuries
- Tendonitis
Repetitive trauma injuries are not the result of a single accident, but are developed over a period of time. It can be more difficult to prove that the repetitive trauma injury is work-related, which is why you need RB Law’s workers’ compensation attorneys to help you get the benefits you deserve.
