Repetitive Motion Injuries

In certain jobs, you may be required to perform the same motion over and over in order to complete a task. If the task is one in which a certain part of your body is overexerted, or the motion itself is a twisting, turning or otherwise awkward motion, you may sustain a repetitive motion/strain injury.

These types of injuries are not only detrimental to your workplace performance, but can affect other areas of your life as well. Pain simply does not disappear when you leave the office, construction site or factory.

If you or someone you love has been hurt by a repetitive strain injury, the New Jersey workers’ compensation lawyers of Levinson Axelrod, P.A. can help you fight for the benefits you deserve. Contact us today at for more information.

Types of Repetitive Motion Injuries

Repetitive strain injuries are divided based on the type of soft tissue they affect and the location of the injury. Examples of common repetitive motion injuries include:

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  • DeQuervain’s syndrome
  • Cubital Tunnel Syndrome
  • Intersection syndrome
  • Golfer’s elbow (Medial Epicondylosis)
  • Focal Dystonia
  • Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
  • Tennis elbow (Lateral Epicondylosis)

Because these injuries can lead to high-cost medical bills, lost wages due to missed work, various costs associated to recovery and pain and suffering, your employer may be required to help alleviate some of these costs through workers’ compensation benefits.
