What are the injury signs that I should look for?
Typical symptoms include tightness, general numbness, soreness, dull ache, sharp pain, tingling, burning, swelling, and/or loss of strength in your upper extremities (hands, arms, shoulders, and neck). These symptoms tend to increase as the offending activity is continued and usually decrease or disappear after stopping the task. If you are still tired and in pain after a night’s rest, the activity in question may be stressing you to the point of injury.
