In order to understand whether you have chronic stress injuries that need to be dealt with, you first need to understand what kind of chronic stress injuries you may be experiencing.

One common form of chronic stress injury is carpal tunnel syndrome, a type of injury that is seemingly only getting worse over time with how much we're working on keyboards and doing work with our hands. The reason this injury occurs is that the nerves in your wrists become compressed and swollen after overuse of the writs, which may lead to both numbness and weakness in the affected area.

Colloquially known as tennis elbow, the tissues connecting the muscles in your forearm to your elbow may become irritated. Back strain can also be a serious issue, caused by repetitive motion of your back muscles, which may become worse over time.
