Repetitive Stress Injury
Alternate Names : RSI, Repetitive Stress Syndrome
How is the injury recognized?
The diagnosis of repetitive stress injury begins with a complete medical
history and physical examination. The healthcare provider may order tests,
such as:
x-rays and other imaging scans, such as an MRI
a nerve conduction velocity test
(NCV) to check for nerve damage
blood tests, including a complete blood count (CBC), to rule out infection
a biopsy of any fluid or growths to rule out infection, tumor, or cancer
