Work Injuries We Treat

Workplace mishaps and strenuous physical activities can cause various physical injuries with different levels of severity. We address both common and peculiar work injuries experienced by our patients, ranging from minor to major.

• Back Pain: Workplace accidents, improper body positioning, and performing heavy work tasks may stress or strain your spinal joints and back muscles. This causes feelings of stiffness, soreness, and pain around your back (below the nape, below the shoulders, the middle back, and the lumbar region).
• Neck Pain: Impact on the neck due to an accident, poor sitting habits, and improper positioning are a few ways pressure is placed against the neck muscles and joints. This condition gives mild to severe pain and, many times, makes the head uncomfortable to turn around.
• Shoulder Pain: Soreness, pain, and languidness in the shoulders are signs you are having shoulder pain. The work activities that you do daily, like lifting, pushing, and pulling heavy objects. Reaching high also stresses your shoulder muscles, which leads to the condition.
• Sciatica: Minor accidents and even regular physical activities can affect proper joint functioning and cause tendon stress and muscle stiffness in the lower back area. This causes pain or numbness in the lumbar region, which is usually followed by a muscle-tingling or muscle-pricking sensation from the lower back down to the legs.
• Wrist Pain: Joint misalignment and muscle tension in the wrist and hand cause soreness and stiffness that make normal activities like typing, grasping, and holding difficult to do.
• Elbow Pain: Elbow tenderness and pain are usually the result of performing physical activities that damage, stress, or pressure the elbows and the tendons connecting them to muscles. This condition reduces mobility and disrupts the performance of most everyday activities.
• Headache: Tensioned nerves and muscles in the head cause mild to extreme pain. Headaches can be classified into types, and there are some that result from muscle strains the shoulder and neck.
