  • Title: Musculoskeletal pain and work disability.
    Author: Harrington JT.
    Journal: Wis Med J; 1992 Oct; 91(10):579-80. PubMed ID: 1441573.
    Abstract:
    Musculo-skeletal pain caused by neck and back injury, cumulative trauma to the upper extremities, fibromyalgia, and reflex dystrophy is an important cause of worker disability. Physicians are involved not only in the care of injured workers, but in providing independent medical opinions regarding such injuries. Advances in medical knowledge permit better understanding and management of these injuries, and it is the responsibility of all physicians to provide accurate diagnosis, treatment, and information to patients, employers, insurers, and the workers compensation system.
