The Top 3 Physical Disabilities That Qualify for SSDI: Disabilities that affect a person’s mobility, stamina, and general physical ability can have a big effect on their daily life.
These conditions can be caused by sickness, genetics, or an accident, and they can make people temporarily, permanently, or not able to do certain things.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) say that one in four Americans has a disability that makes it hard to do major daily tasks. The most common type of impairment is one that affects moving.
Let’s look at the three most common physical disabilities and talk about how to get disability payments and other forms of compensation.
Arthritis, which causes painful and swollen joints, is the most common cause of disability among adults in the U.S., affecting one in seven people.
There are different kinds of arthritis, such as osteoarthritis, septic arthritis, juvenile arthritis, gout, rheumatoid arthritis, and more. People with arthritis may feel pain, stiffness, swelling, and have trouble moving their joints.
Musculoskeletal diseases (MSDs) connected to work, like carpal tunnel syndrome, tendon strains, and herniated discs, can also make it hard to move and do daily tasks.
Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common condition in children that makes it hard to move and coordinate their muscles. CP comes in four main types: spastic, ataxic, mixed, and dyskinetic. It is caused by damage to the growing brain.
People with CP may feel stiff, move in jerky ways, have trouble with their balance and coordination, and move in ways they can’t control. This problem will affect people’s life skills for a long time and will need special adjustments to help them do daily tasks.
Damage to the spinal cord can cause spinal cord injuries (SCIs), which can make a person lose their ability to feel, move, or do other things. These injuries can be full or partial, and they can affect how things work below the spot of the injury.
Spinal cord injuries (SCIs) can be caused by diseases or accidents, making it hard to get around and adapt to new physical limits. People with SCIs may need helpers like wheelchairs, which can make it harder for them to move around and do daily tasks.
The Social Security Administration (SSA) says that someone is disabled if they can’t do substantial gainful activity (SGA) because of a medically proven physical or mental handicap that is expected to last at least one year or cause death.
