Understanding Repetitive Stress Injury Cases

Common Causes

In New Braunfels, repetitive stress injury cases often trace back to conditions on I-35 and near I-35 through New Braunfels (one of the most dangerous stretches of interstate in Texas). Local drivers and pedestrians encounter these specific risks when navigating these corridors.

  • Assembly line work requiring the same hand and wrist motions for hours
  • Constant typing and computer mouse use without ergonomic equipment
  • Repetitive lifting and carrying in warehouse and shipping jobs
  • Vibrating tools and equipment causing hand arm vibration syndrome
  • Overhead work causing shoulder impingement and rotator cuff damage
  • Prolonged standing or walking on hard surfaces causing foot and knee problems

Typical Injuries

Accident victims in New Braunfels are typically transported to trauma centers including Christus Santa Rosa Hospital (New Braunfels). The following injuries are common outcomes of these incidents.

  • Carpal tunnel syndrome requiring wrist surgery
  • Tendonitis in the wrists, elbows, and shoulders
  • Tennis elbow and golfer elbow (lateral and medial epicondylitis)
  • Trigger finger requiring surgical release
  • Bursitis in the shoulders, elbows, and knees
  • Degenerative disc disease from repetitive spinal loading

Establishing Liability

For repetitive stress injury claims filed in Comal, liability often turns on evidence gathered from specific New Braunfels locations, including I-35 through New Braunfels (one of the most dangerous stretches of interstate in Texas).

Repetitive stress injury claims require medical evidence linking the workplace activities to the gradual onset of the condition. Occupational medicine specialists and ergonomics experts can testify about how the specific job duties caused or contributed to the repetitive stress injury. Employer failure to implement ergonomic interventions, provide rest breaks, or rotate workers between tasks after receiving complaints about pain establishes negligence.

Relevant Texas Law

Residents of New Braunfels pursue these claims under the same Texas statutes that govern all state personal injury actions.

Texas workers compensation covers repetitive trauma injuries under Texas Labor Code Section 408.007, which requires the worker to report the injury within 30 days of learning it may be work related. For nonsubscriber employers, repetitive stress injury claims proceed as common law negligence actions without the defenses that would otherwise be available. The date of injury for statute of limitations purposes is typically the date the worker knew or should have known the condition was related to work activities.
