Health Corner 5- Repetitive Stress Injury

by: desertknightfm Rhojel


Repetitive Stress Injuries (RSIs)
Repetitive stress injuries (RSIs) are injuries that happen when too much stress is placed on a part of the body, resulting in inflammation (pain and swelling), muscle strain, or tissue damage. This stress generally occurs from repeating the same movements over and over again (see examples below).
SIGN AND SYMPTOMS;
Twitching movements, numbness, or pain in the affected area, stiffness or soreness in the neck or back, feelings of weakness or fatigue in the hands or arms, popping or clicking sensation.


Taking Care of Yourself
*                   Prevention is the best medicine when it comes to RSIs. Overall flexibility and strength can help to prevent RSIs, so exercise regularly and stay active (remembering warm-ups, cool-downs, and stretching, of course!).
