Per Dr. Bryan Matthisen, D.C.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics report analyzing injuries in the workplace of the private industry and state and local governments in 2014, sprains, strains, and tears accounted for over 400,000 cases and 38% of the nonfatal injuries listed. Of that percentage, shoulder injuries accounted for the most days missed from work at a median number of 26 days.
