When To See a Doctor

Don't Delay!

Symptoms related to the stress of poor ergonomics (cumulative trauma) can get out of hand quickly.  By the time that you start to feel symptoms from cumulative trauma, you have already developed irritation and inflammation of the tendons, muscles and joints.  Over the course of my career in health care, I have seen cumulative trauma cause carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, tendonitis of the thumb and various impingement syndromes lead to surgery, permanent disability and loss of work.

Often times, cumulative trauma is often dismissed as a minor symptom.  Cumulative trauma can have a devastating effect on your ability to work.  You should see your doctor at the first sign of any upper extremity pain, numbness / tingling or weakness in the arms or hands.  Successfully managing cumulative trauma injuries requires early diagnosis and treatment as well as identifying and correcting any aggravating factors.
