In the private-sector alone every day, we see 11,500 nonfatal work-related injuries/illnesses with more than half of these injuries/illnesses requiring a job transfer, work restrictions, or time away from the jobs as a result. Among all workers, not just the private sector, 9,000 workers are treated in emergency departments each day, and approximately 200 of these workers are hospitalized.
Sports Injuries
Sports injuries are an unfortunate risk of participating in athletic activities. Accidents, improper warm ups, or poor training habits can cause sports injuries to occur with increased frequency. Many injuries result from wear and tear on the body, particularly on joints that are subjected to repeated activity. Some of the most common sustained sports injuries include.
● Muscle Pulls ● Neck Pain ● Lower Back Strains ● Hip & Knee Damage
Personal Injuries
The National Center for Health Statistics National Household Survey:
More than one-quarter of Americans (26%) age 20 years and over, an estimated 76.5 million people report that they have had a problem with pain of any sort that persisted for more than 24 hours in duration. This number does not account for acute pain.
