Sprains and Strains A sprain is a stretching or tearing of ligaments — the

Sprains and Strains A sprain is a stretching or tearing of ligaments — the tough bands of fibrous tissue that connect two bones together in your joints. A strain is a stretching or tearing of muscle or tendon. A tendon is a fibrous cord of tissue that connects muscles to bones. Initial treatment for both sprains and strains includes rest, ice, compression and elevation. Mild sprains and strains can be successfully treated at home. Severe sprains and strains sometimes require surgery to repair torn ligaments, muscles or tendons. 8

Sprains § A sprain occurs when you overextend or tear a ligament while severely

Sprains § A sprain occurs when you overextend or tear a ligament while severely stressing a joint. Sprains often occur in the following circumstances: § Ankle — Walking or exercising on an uneven surface § Knee — Pivoting during an activity § Wrist — Landing on an outstretched hand during a fall 9

Strains § There are two types of strains: acute and chronic. An acute strain

Strains § There are two types of strains: acute and chronic. An acute strain occurs when a muscle becomes strained or pulled — or may even tear — when it stretches unusually far or abruptly. Acute strains often occur in the following ways: § Slipping on ice § Running, jumping or throwing § Lifting a heavy object or lifting in an awkward position § A chronic strain results from prolonged, repetitive movement of a muscle. This may occur on the job or during sports. 10

Factors contributing to Strains and Sprains § Factors contributing to sprains and strains include:

Factors contributing to Strains and Sprains § Factors contributing to sprains and strains include: § Poor conditioning. Lack of conditioning can leave your muscles weak and more likely to sustain injury. § Fatigue. Tired muscles are less likely to provide good support for your joints. When you're tired, you're also more likely to succumb to forces that could stress a joint or overextend a muscle. § Improper warm-up. Properly warming up before vigorous physical activity loosens your muscles and increases joint range of motion, making the muscles less tight and less prone to trauma and tears. § Environmental conditions. Slippery or uneven surfaces can make you more prone to injury. § Poor equipment. Ill-fitting or poorly maintained footwear or other equipment can contribute to your risk of a sprain or strain. 11

Things we can do § Safety in the workplace is extremely important, but sometimes repetitive job functions cause employees to overlook common safety measures that lead to injury, more specifically, sprains and strains. Practicing preventative measures daily can help employees avoid painful accidents that require time away from work and potentially lost wages for both the employer and the employee. § In an attempt to increase workplace safety, we encourage employees to follow preventative measures to avoid accidents that lead to strains and sprains on the job. Physicians stress the importance of prevention with the notion that unlike many illnesses, workplace accidents can (in most instances), be avoided. 12

Lifting and Pushing Loads § Lifting, pushing, and overreaching are the most common causes

Lifting and Pushing Loads § Lifting, pushing, and overreaching are the most common causes of strains and sprains. Any job that requires an employee to sit or stand, or bent in an awkward position for long periods of time can cause excess stress and strain on certain muscles. Most strains and sprains affect the back, arms, and shoulders, while many of these occur because of improper handling of materials. § Some of the most important safety measures to help avoid strains and sprains on the job include the following: § -Lift correctly by bending at the knees, lifting with leg strength, not the back. § -Carry loads close to the body. Injuries can occur when workers try to pull or lift a heavy or awkward object without help or attempt to lift an object while twisting from the waist. 13

Ergonomics and Equipment checks § When carrying a load, avoid lifting upward unnecessarily. Keep

Ergonomics and Equipment checks § When carrying a load, avoid lifting upward unnecessarily. Keep as much of the load as possible at waist level. § -Get help with heavy loads. Don’t try to move or lift an object alone that’s too heavy. Instead of lifting an 80 -pound load, if possible, break it down into smaller parts. If the load can’t be broken down, find help from a mechanical device or lift it with another worker. § -Make sure moving equipment works properly or it will cause unnecessary strain just trying to get it to work. If the wheels on a cart are not aligned, it is more likely to strain the arms, shoulders, and back. § -Change work positions frequently. Chronic strain due to an unchanging work position can weaken the back, arms, and shoulders. Proper ergonomics is important so working heights should be adjusted to prevent slumping or excessive reaching. 14

Importance of Stretching § -Stretch during the day to increase flexibility. Take breaks letting

Importance of Stretching § -Stretch during the day to increase flexibility. Take breaks letting shoulders and neck muscles go limp; swiveling the head or arms or flexing hands and fingers. When chronic strain happens, muscles become less able to withstand strenuous activity and grow more prone to injury. § It’s important to take care of the entire body with exercise, proper posture, a sensible diet and adequate rest. If muscles or ligaments have weakened over time from lack of exercise or age, strain or sprains are more likely than if an employee is physically fit. 15
