PERSONAL INJURY SOLICITORS

Vibration White Finger (VWF) Claim Service

Vibration White Finger (VWF) is an industrial condition caused by exposure to hand transmitted vibration associated with the use of vibrating power tools. This can result in symptoms of discomfort, tingling, numbness and whiteness in the fingers when exposed to the cold. 

Employers will not be held responsible for injury caused as a result of exposure to vibration before 1971 as this is the nominal date that all employers were aware, or should have been aware of the dangers.

Exposure to significant vibration can give rise to symptoms of tingling in the hands and aching in the wrists and muscles of the forearm. Further symptoms of numbness and lack of sensitivity of the fingers can also occur. The greater and more frequent the exposure, the more severe will be the symptoms. Attacks of whiteness at the tips the fingers may occur when exposed to the cold which is caused by a restriction in the blood flow. When the blood supply returns, the hands and fingers can then go red and be accompanied by painful tingling which can last for up to about an hour or so.

If you have suffered an injury and would like some help and advice - simply call our Freephone Helpline on 0800 01 53425 (0800 01LEGAL), and we would arrange for a specialist personal injury solicitor to contact you - without any obligations. 

You only need to decide whether you would like to instruct the solicitor, after you two have spoken, and you would like him or her to act for you at no costs (this is because the Law allows a competent personal injury solicitor to recover all costs from the insurance company of the person responsible for your accident).
