Legal Definitions - continuous injury

Definition: Continuous injury is a type of injury that happens repeatedly over time. It is also known as continual injury.

Examples: A person who works in a factory and is exposed to harmful chemicals every day may suffer from continuous injury. Another example is a person who plays a sport and repeatedly injures the same body part, such as a knee or shoulder.

These examples illustrate how continuous injury can happen over a period of time, rather than as a one-time event. It can cause long-term damage to a person's health or well-being.
