Repetitive stress injuries occur when there is too much stress placed on a part of the body, which results in inflammation (swelling), muscle strain, or tissue damage. This is usually caused from performing movements repetitively. 

Repetitive stress injuries usually happen due to work-related injuries, which can result from a lot of time using computer mouses and keyboards. While these injuries are most common with adults, they also occur in teens as well. This is because teenagers spend more time than ever on the computer. In addition, repetitive stress injuries can happen from playing tennis and other repetitive sports, as the overuse of certain body parts can result in repetitive stress injuries.

Common Causes of Repetitive Stress Injuries

There are many different types of repetitive stress injuries, such as:

  • Using a computer mouse
  • Typing
  • Swiping items at a checkout stand
  • Grasping tools
  • Working an assembly line
  • Training for sports
