Minnesota Repetitive Stress Injury Lawyer

Carpal tunnel syndrome strikes workers in a wide range of occupations, including those whose jobs involve typing, writing, sewing, assembly line work, use of tools and driving.

Symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome include:

  • Numbness and tingling in the thumb, fingers and palm
  • Pain in the wrist extending as far as the elbow
  • Weakened grip
  • Difficulty making intricate movements with fingers

Treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome may include medication, physical therapy, adaptive equipment (such as a splint) and even surgery. While employers are reluctant to pay workers’ compensation for carpal tunnel and other repetitive stress injuries, our attorneys understand the real impact this condition has on our clients’ lives and livelihoods. We will work to help you obtain the workers’ compensation benefits you are entitled to.
