BURSITIS COMPENSATION CLAIMS * REPETITIVE STRAIN INJURY INSURANCE CLAIM

Bursitis compensation claims * repetitive strain injury insurance claim * how to sue an employer * accident and injury at work compensation claim

Knee bursitis (also know as Beat Knee or Housemaid's Knee) is an inflammation of the knee joint which is commonly experienced by those whose job involves doing a lot of kneeling or crawling. Tennis elbow is another repetitive strain injury that can occur when spending a lot of time on a computer. This kind of bursitis is a form of repetitive strain injury.

BURSITIS COMPENSATION CLAIM

Examples of occupations where beat knee bursitis is quite common include: carpet fitters, miners, electricians, plumbers or anyone else who spends large amounts of time working in a confined space where a lot of kneeling, squatting or crawling is required.

Various joints in the body, including the knee and elbow, contain a bursa - a fluid filled sac that is designed to reduce friction when the joint moves. If someone spends a lot of time on their knees or in front of a computer, then the fluid in the bursa can become infected and this causes the painful inflammation of the joint which is a classic symptom of bursitis.

REPETITIVE STRAIN INJURY INSURANCE CLAIM

Other symptoms of beat knee bursitis are:

tenderness/pain when the knee is touched
difficulty moving the knee
swelling and redness around the knee
pain (anything from minor discomfort to severe pain) when the knee is moved or articulated

If you are suffering from beat knee or tennis elbow as a result of your present or past working conditions then it is likely that you will be able to make a claim against your employer if it can be shown that they failed to take sufficient steps to protect your health and safety.
