Question:

Can a person get Workers Comp for carpal tunnel?

Since carpal tunnel is something you get from typing all the time (well, for me at least) is it consider a work related injury? My hands and arms ache all the time and even keep me awake at night. Any thoughts?


Answers:

Disability is not easy to get. It took me two years and I have Lupus, asthma, chronic cystitis, and chronic migraines. There is surgery which can be performed for carpal tunnel. I would imagine you would have to have this done first and if it failed
then you could begin your up hill battle for disability.
