A repetitive motion injury is any injury or damage to the musculoskeletal or nervous system resulting from extended use, compression or repetitive motion of a particular muscle, ligament or joint. The most commonly recognized repetitive motion injury is carpal tunnel syndrome, but injuries also include conditions such as work-related upper limb disorder and reflex sympathetic dystrophy.
Any worker can acquire a repetitive motion injury from performing a series of similar job tasks over an extended period. A repetitive motion injury is different from chronic pain because the physical injury can often be medically tested and diagnosed by a medical professional.
If you are experiencing pain that is caused by a specific, repetitive motion on the job, you are eligible for workers' compensation benefits for medical treatment and lost earnings.

We are a professional association of independent law firms and attorneys who focus on workers' compensation and personal injury litigation.
