Logging Industry – Soft Tissue Injuries
Logging can be a difficult industry. It involves heavy machinery, strenuous work, and tough terrains. Due to factors like these, logging industry workers may be at an increased risk of soft tissue injuries. Soft tissue injuries are injuries that occur due to sudden trauma or continuous overuse, like through making the same movement every day. Typically, these injuries affect the muscles, ligaments, and tendons.
Some of the most common types of soft tissue injuries include:
- Sprains
- Strains
- Bursitis
- Tendinitis
Soft tissues can lead to constant or frequent pain. This pain may prevent logging industry workers from doing their jobs or other similar tasks. In some cases, soft tissue can lead to permanent injuries or long-term pain.
