Why Do Work Injuries Happen?

Most of us spend 40+ hour per week at work, and whether we have a physically demanding job (like construction workers and first responders) or sit most of the day, there are plenty of factors which may be increasing our risk for injury. These include:

    • Poor posture, body mechanics, and ergonomics (workplace set-up)
    • Frequent heavy lifting, bending, or twisting (or frequent operation of heavy machinery)
    • Prolonged times spent sitting
    • Stress and poor sleep (these can lead to distraction and inattention, which could increase the risk of accidents)
    • Slips, trips, and falls 
    • Work-related auto accidents
    • Repetitive movement, e.g., typing, hammering, etc. 

Even poor nutrition and hydration can increase your risk for work injury by leaving you depleted of the nutrients and hydration your body needs for a full day of energy.

Common Types of Work Injury

So, with all the underlying causes of a work injury, the next thing to discuss is what these factors can potentially lead to. Dr. Miranda and his staff frequently diagnose and treat the following types of work injury:

    • Nerve compression, including sciatica and carpal tunnel syndrome
    • Neck pain, often from whiplash (e.g., after a slip or car accident) or tech neck (forward flexed posture)
    • Back pain, often from vertebral joint subluxations or mechanical stress/tension on the muscles, ligaments, and discs
