Question

Can u get workmans comp if u get carpel tunnel ?

Answer 1

It's been done, but it has to have really affected your ability to work. Obviously, you have to go to a doctor and get him to agree that you have carpel tunnel. Then, he'll have to put you on physical therapy, medication and probably a brace. I assume you know that you'll have to demonstrate the symptoms 24-7 because you never know when a camera is showing your daily activities. Your place of employment could ask you to do a limited amount of work and if you still cant work, then prepare yourself to spend a lot of time with your doctor and the people at Workman's Comp.  I know how painful carpel tunnel can be but I also know there a lot of people out there who are faking it. Good luck with this.

Answer 2

YOU CAN IF YOU CAN PROVE THAT YOUR WORK CAUSED IT

Answer 3

If I ever get carpel tunnel I'll have to sue myself.
