Cumulative Trauma Disorder (CTD) is a condition that affects many people who perform repetitive tasks over extended periods of time. The term CTD encompasses a variety of musculoskeletal disorders that can result from continuous strain on the body. Some commonly used synonyms for CTD include Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI), Overuse Injury, and Occupational Overuse Syndrome. These terms describe the same underlying problem, which is the cumulative damage caused by repetitive actions that exceed the body's ability to repair itself. Other names for CTD include Musculoskeletal Disorder (MSD), Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorder (WRMD), Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, and Tendinitis. Regardless of the name used, CTD is a serious condition that requires prompt treatment to prevent long-term damage.
