Repetitive stress injuries don’t always announce themselves with a dramatic event. More often, they escalate:
- tingling or numbness in the hands after shifts
- elbow or forearm pain from repeated gripping or tool use
- shoulder/neck soreness from sustained posture or overhead work
- finger stiffness that makes typing, scanning, or machinery checks harder
If your symptoms worsen during busy periods—common in seasonal production and transport schedules—insurers may argue the timing is “coincidental.” The strongest Kerman cases usually show a consistent pattern between specific duties and symptom progression, backed by medical notes.
