Overuse and Repetitive Motion Injuries
Overuse and repetitive motion injuries: Overview
When you use one part of your body in the same way over and over again, it can put too much stress on your joints, muscles, or other tissues. This can cause an overuse injury. You may have pain, swelling, or tenderness in that part of your body.
There are many different kinds of overuse injuries. You could get one from doing a sport or activity. Or you could get one from something you do at work. For example, you may get elbow pain from frequent lifting. Or you may get wrist pain from typing all day.
Overuse and Repetitive Motion Injuries
A muscular condition caused by repetitive tasks, repetitive motion disorder (RMD), is frequently caused by activities like gardening, tennis, or in the workplace.
