Repetitive Movements
Repetitive movements in work or play would result in osteoarthritis over time. Those people who do several activities in their daily jobs for an extended period might be at higher risks of developing joint stiffness and pain. These include climbing stairs, squatting, kneeling, lifting heavy items, bending, or physical labor. They would break down your cartilage quickly and lead to gradual wear and tear. Osteoarthritis caused by occupations tends to affect joints in your hips, knees, and hands. That’s why employers should ensure their workers should have short breaks between each session or shift for the joints and muscles to recover. Also, you need to take some preventive measures to protect your body from these damages. [14]
