Cumulative trauma disorders have increased five-fold since 1979 and now account for up to 47% of workplace injuries. Nerve entrapment, tendonitis, and other soft tissue injuries are the most common diagnostic groups. Both occupational and non-occupational factors contribute to the etiology of these disorders. Epidemiology, differential diagnosis, and interventions for treatment are reviewed.
