What Are Repetitive Motion Injuries?

Repetitive motion injuries are some of the most common kinds of injuries. This disorder has an enormous impact on your daily life as it makes even simple tasks hard to accomplish.

Repetitive motion injuries account for about 50% of all the athletic-related injuries. Simple everyday actions can lead to this condition.

Types of Repetitive motion injuries


1. Tendinitis: It is an inflammation of the tendon. It commonly occurs in the shoulders and the biceps as well as the elbow. This problem is more common among men than women.

2. Bursitis: It is the inflammation of the bursa sac. The body has many bursa zones. While most bursae are found at the time of birth, some can develop due to repetitive pressure. Bursitis usually occurs in the elbow, knees and the hip.

Causes of Repetitive motion injuries


  • Repetitive activity
  • Trauma
  • Crystal deposits (especially in gout)
  • Friction
  • Arthritis

Symptoms


If it is tendinitis, then it is usually indicated with pain in the affected area. The pain becomes worse if the affected part is kept moving. The skin over the area may be warm and red.

If it is bursitis, it is indicated by pain and tenderness in the affected area. The range of motion of that body part becomes greatly reduced. Many times, there is redness and swelling along with a crunchy
feeling.  

When to see the doctor?


If you perceive any of the following symptoms then it is time to visit your doctor:
  • Pain with movement of arms and legs
  • Tenderness over a joint
  • Redness and increased warmth over a joint
