Faster Work Injury Recovery with Chiropractic Care

Dr. Izquierdo helps a lot of people from the Mauldin community who are harmed on the job. According to the National Safety Council, the most ordinary kind of work injury is musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), which involves trauma to the muscles, nerves, tendons, ligaments and joints. MSDs account for more than one third of all workplace accidents.

The most common type of MSD is a strain, which is an injury to a muscle or tendon. Strains are caused by lifting, pushing or pulling too much weight, or by doing repetitive movements. Other common MSDs involve carpal tunnel syndrome, tendinitis and back issues.

These injuries can be prevented by using proper lifting techniques, taking frequent breaks and using ergonomic devices. Employers can also help prevent injuries by providing their employees educational data on putting a stop to getting hurt on the job.
