Overuse of the muscles of the hands, wrists, arms, or shoulders on a repeated, often daily basis.

Cold temperatures, vibrating equipment or forceful movements can exacerbate the condition.

Awkward posture, poorly organised workstations and badly designed equipment, lack of rests or task variety adds to the damage.

Stress is often a factor.
