    Rotator Cuff Injuries

    We use our shoulders to perform many tasks, whether it is lifting in the workplace, gardening, playing sports, carrying children, or cooking. Shoulder injuries usually cause pain and limitations in other areas of the body e.g. the back, arm, and hand.

    The rotator cuff is the collection of tendons and muscles that hold your shoulder and arm together. A tear or sprain to the rotator cuff can leave your shoulder feeling extremely painful and weak. The pain can sometimes be felt down your arm, making it very difficult to move and sleep at night. These injuries can often be suffered during car accidents and or in the workplace.

    Your shoulder pain can dramatically affect day-to-day life. It can prevent you from working, pursuing hobbies, or performing simple everyday tasks. If it can be proved that your injury was caused by an accident that wasn’t your fault, you are likely to have a personal injury claim.

    Those most susceptible to rotator cuff injuries are generally older people who have suffered wear and tear above and beyond the norm. People working in jobs where this area of the body is exposed to repetitive strain are most at risk.

    Causes of rotator cuff injuries

    Causes of injury can include:

    • Falling on the shoulder directly or using an arm to break your fall.
    • Lifting an object that is too heavy or performing an incorrect lifting technique.
    • Pulling an object that’s too heavy or performing an incorrect pulling technique.

    If you believe that your rotator cuff injury occurred because of the negligence of your employer, you may have a valid claim for compensation. It may be the case that your employer didn’t properly train or protect you in the workplace. Alternatively, a failure to adhere to health and safety regulations may have put you at risk unnecessarily.

    Rotator Cuff Injury Compensation

    All personal injury cases are unique and so the amount of compensation that is awarded in each case is also unique. The amount of compensation that is awarded is determined by looking at two distinct factors – general damages and special damages.

    GENERAL DAMAGES

    The pain and suffering that your injuries have caused is the main factor that is used to determine how much compensation you are owed.

    SPECIAL DAMAGES

    However, compensation also takes into account any financial losses that you might have suffered as a result of your injuries, such as a loss of earnings due to being unable to return to work.
