The medical expert, Dr. Anderson, initially found no cumulative trauma from the applicant's work with the defendant school district but later opined it was possible from concurrent work as a cashier. The Board found it unclear why the applicant's job with the defendant, which also involved standing and hand use, would not also support a cumulative trauma claim, necessitating further investigation.
