Carpal tunnel syndrome basics
If you work too much, and keep doing the same thing over and over again, for a long period of time, you may end up with one of the workplace injuries. One such injury is carpal tunnel syndrome, an injury which occurs if you use your arms and hands for a substantial amount of time without a break.
If you believe that you have developed a carpal tunnel syndrome as a result of your workplace or all the stress you’ve put on your arms or hands while at work, reach out to Charlotte Workers Compensation Attorneys and seek their legal and professional help.
Easier to prevent than to treat
You are most likely eligible to receive financial benefits for the workers compensation program. Additionally, you will receive fully paid medical care and treatments which will ease your pain and allow you to come back to work in no time. If you miss more than 21 days of work, you will also receive 2/3 of your average weekly wages returned to you (subject to the state’s minimum and maximum earnings).
Injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome require a lot of attention, and are very delicate. You won’t be able to use your hands to lift anything, your grip strength will slowly fade away and you won’t be able to type, hold any objects or do pretty much any works that requires your fingers to move or act in coordination. Such injuries are usually easer to prevent than to treat, so it is highly advised to rest your hands after every stressful action and do things properly.
The most common professions which are prone to receive carpal tunnel syndrome are:
- A musician
- A data entry professional
- A writer
- A journalist
- A mechanic
- A carpenter
- An electrician
- A plumber
