Repetitive trauma injuries are often caused by repetitive tasks, forceful exertions, vibrations, mechanical compression or awkward positions sustained over a long period of time. These conditions are painful and can often be crippling, requiring sufferers to necessitate workers' compensation benefits if they are unable to continue to work. Repetitive trauma or accumulative exposure can result in a variety of physical conditions, including the following:
- Carpal tunnel syndrome, caused by compression and strain to the wrist
- Cubital tunnel syndrome, or elbow pain caused by overuse
- Disk herniation or shoulder injuries
- Arthritis
- Repetitive strain injuries (RSI), including tendinitis, bursitis and tennis elbow
- Low back disorders from repetitive lifting and poor posture
