Abstract: Musicians with overuse syndrome most commonly present
with pain, inflammation, and soreness. The patient history and
physical examination are the best diagnostic tools. Treatment
may involve rest, splinting, and drug intervention. After the
pain has subsided, progressive exercises may be appropriate.
Prognosis is best with early detection and treatment.
