Understanding Work-Related Injuries & Everyday Symptoms

Work-related injuries often develop from poor posture, repetitive tasks, heavy lifting, or long hours at a desk. You might feel tension in your neck, stiffness in your back, aching shoulders, or numbness in your wrists and fingers. These symptoms may seem small at first, but over time, they can make working or even simple movements uncomfortable. Conditions like tendonitis, back strain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and repetitive stress injuries are common among workers in both physical and desk-bound jobs. Studies show that work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are a leading cause of reduced performance, medical leave, and long-term disability globally, including in Malaysia (MDPI, 2024, MDPI, 2023).
