FAQs on Workplace Injuries:

What Makes a Workplace Injury a Workplace Injury?

All work-related injuries are sustained on the job. Popular culture tends to think of a work injury as something resulting from a major, traumatic accident. However, even repetitive strain from prolonged or repeated basic movements and postures can result in injury. Slips, falls, and strains related to lifting or typing are some of the most common causes of injury. This means office workers are just as likely to need injury-related care as the employees of a construction site or other blue-collar occupation.

Workplace injuries can involve and impact all the joints of the body, including the spine. And even a seemingly minor problem can interfere with a worker’s productivity by making their tasks difficult or painful to complete.

When Should You Seek Help for an Injury?

Should you take a fall or slip while on the job, or even if you experience pain while performing normal job duties for more than several weeks, it’s best to notify your employer or HR representative right away. You should then consult with the care professional of your choice as soon as possible to maximize the speed of your recovery process as well as to get help with a possible workers’ compensation claim.

How Can a Chiropractor (Licensed to Do Physical Therapy) Help Me After an Injury?

A chiropractor licensed to perform physical therapy can assist patients whose pain is caused by musculoskeletal injuries - which affect ligaments, muscles, tendons, bones, and even nerves - to help restore strength, mobility, and activity levels following an injury. These injuries can occur due to trauma or simple wear and tear from daily routines. These specialists use a wide range of techniques designed to reduce pain and tissue inflammation caused by many workplace injuries.

Common work-related injuries that can be treated with chiropractic and physical therapy care include numbness in hands, neck strain, back problems, headaches, carpal tunnel syndrome and inflammation of tendons.
