An overuse injury is a type of muscle or bone injury, such as tendinopathy (tendinitis) or a stress fracture, that is caused by repetitive trauma. There are different causes of overuse injuries, but they tend to originate from 2 different sources:
Overuse injuries are more common in athletes as they get older as well as with athletes that specialize in one sport year round. This is part of the reason why it is important for athletes to participate in multiple sports, so different muscles can be used and develop equally with other muscles. Ways to help prevent overuse injuries from occurring:
If you believe you or your athlete have sustained an overuse injury, it is important to manage and treat it early as it can persist and turn into chronic pain, which tends to take longer to recover from.

There are lots of things that climate change can do for your employees. There are some who are uncomfortable with it, and there are some who will be able to do a lot more. I hope that you can give them the proper treatment that they need. I seriously believe that it is only a matter of time before we can do what is right for our employees. I am saying this because I am also a manager of my own business.
