treatment at SE1 London Bridge City Clinic Group

What is RSI ?

Repetitive Strain Injury or Repetitive Stress Injury can occur in the work place and when performing sport. Repetitive injuries are injuries that happen when too much stress is placed on a joint of muscular tissue causing inflammation, pain, swelling and stiffness. This stress is usually caused from repeating the same movement over and over again.

Within the work place, RSI, repetitive strain injuries are common with people who spend a lot of time using a computer keyboard. Some types of sport can cause RSI and sometimes playing a musical instrument can cause it too. Nutrition can play a factor in RSI. Good nutrition is needed to strengthen muscles and joints.

Common signs and symptoms of RSI are:

• Tingling, numbness or pain in the area


• Increased pain in the night in the effected area


• Stiffness in the neck or back


• Feeling of weakness or fatigue in the hands, wrists or arms


• Popping clicking sensation in the muscles or joints
