Repetitive stress injuries such as torn rotator cuffs and carpel tunnel syndrome are very real and they are very painful. Many of these types of injuries don't happen because of a single incident or accident. After years of repeating a similar motion with a joint, a tendon or ligament suddenly gives way or wears out, resulting in a debilitating injury or permanent damage.
The federal Social Security Administration (SSA) recognizes many types of repetitive stress injuries as qualifying impairments for benefits. Subjective symptoms such as chronic pain are typically not enough to get your claim approved. A successful claim or appeal must often include a professional opinion that the injury is severe enough to prevent a return to work, or that surgical repair has reduced your capacity to perform job tasks.
