Man suffering from shoulder pain at work Common Work Injuries

Jobs of all types—from office work to manual labor—can result in work injuries. Common work injuries include:

  • Carpal tunnel syndrome: compression of the median nerve in the wrist
  • Frozen shoulder syndrome: progressive range of motion loss following injury in the shoulder
  • Lower back pain: achy and tender lower backs are common among people who sit a lot and may relate to muscle strains, muscle shortening, disc injury, etc.
  • Sciatica: compression of the sciatic nerve causing severe leg pain, numbness, and weakness
  • Tech neck: strain and tension in the neck caused by prolonged slouching over a phone or computer

In some cases, a frank injury such as a slip or fall may lead to a work injury. In other cases, there may be a cumulative effect of repetitive motion, poor lifting mechanics, poor posture, poor ergonomic set up, excessive sitting, and other factors. Even issues such as poor nutrition, poor sleep, poor stress management, obesity, and smoking and alcohol consumption can worsen an injury or increase its likelihood to occur.

Teasing out all these factors while also relieving symptoms can be a difficult task to do on one's own—especially if reliance on temporary pain-relief medications and taking some time off is the only plan of care. For this reason, more and more people are discovering how chiropractic care can be extremely helpful in the face of their work injury.
