What is a chronic overuse injury?

If you or a loved one has experienced an overuse injury from an accident, contact 844 See Mike for a free consultation so we can help you recover from this experience and get fairly compensated.

An overuse injury is typically a muscle or joint injury that is caused by any repetitive action or movement. These are seen in sports with such movements such as rowing, as well as jobs requiring repetitive movements, which can even be a desk job caused by typing throughout the day. Symptoms of an overuse injury may be swelling, tenderness, redness, limited range of motion of the affected area, and impaired function of the affected area.

A chronic overuse injury is a recurrent overuse injury largely due to the continuation of the activity that caused the injury. This may be a track and field runner experiencing stress fractures in the feet multiple times in their life. They can cause prolonged pain, inflammation, tears, and/or instability in the affected area for the time that it is injured and possibly at rest and without injury. Chronic overuse injuries may cause permanent damage as they continue, so it is best to consult a doctor to find the best way to treat them and how your continuation with your activity may affect your condition. There are many different types of chronic overuse injuries, however, their consistent theme is that they recur throughout the patient’s life.
