Basic Rules for Avoiding Sprains and Strains

Before you begin, size up the job.Try to find a way to eliminate or reduce lifting, lowering, pushing, pulling, and carrying, whenever possible.
Get help when the load is heavy, awkward, or unstable. If carrying the load by yourself, hold it close to your body.
Make sure there are no slipping or tripping hazards in your work area or around your home. The sudden jerk caused by a slip or trip can cause a sprain or strain.
Don't overextend yourself-use a step stool or ladder when lifting above shoulder height.
Try to keep yourself in good condition.
Take a lesson from athletes-don't rush into a job cold.Warm up your muscles first.
Avoid twisting your body while handling a load. Work smarter not harder-it's easier and safer.
