The severity of MSDs can vary. In some cases, they cause pain and discomfort that interferes with everyday activities. Early diagnosis and treatment may help ease symptoms and improve long-term outlook.

Certain activities can cause wear and tear on your musculoskeletal system, leading to MSDs. These include: sitting in the same position at a computer every day, engaging in repetitive motions, lifting heavy weights and maintaining poor posture at work.
