Understanding Repetitive Motion Injuries in Hollywood, Florida

In Florida, where workers contribute their best efforts to every industry, repetitive motion injuries have become a common workplace hazard. These injuries result from the repetition of specific movements over time, leading to strain and damage to muscles, tendons, and nerves. These injuries can happen in any work environment, from factory jobs to office roles.

Common Repetitive Motion Injuries in Florida

Every industry can put employees at risk of different repetitive motion injuries, but the most common diagnoses include:

  • Carpal Tunnel Common among office workers, repetitive typing and computer usage can lead to carpal tunnel syndrome, causing pain, numbness, and weakness in the hand and wrist.
  • Workers in physically demanding professions, such as construction and manufacturing, are prone to tendinitis due to repetitive actions that inflame the tendons.
  • Repetitive movements can cause inflammation in the bursae, small fluid-filled sacs that cushion the bones, leading to considerable discomfort.
  • Rotator Cuff Injuries. Overhead movements can lead to rotator cuff injuries, affecting workers in various fields, including construction and athletics.
  • Trigger Finger. Common among those who repeatedly grip objects or use tools, this injury causes the finger to lock or catch when bent.
