Warning for anyone who works daily on a computer

Some of us might don't know about Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, it's some kind of a common source of hand numbness and pain. You can see some of it's surgery pictures, hope you still good after seeing those.

And it's a big risk for anyone who works daily on a computer that use mouse and computer on bad position. Here are some good postions on mouse and keyboard usage for you:







and more on this post, also some hand exercise while on computer

Hope this information help us on healthy workspace! And hope I'm not posting this on wrong section

 

Nice pictures of the surgery........

 

cool....many of us dnt take care of such small things....

 

good, but I think the most important is pose of back, which I never used it correctly (as many of us i think) and now it hurts sometimes

 

I have RSI, similar to Carpel Tunnel Syndrome.

My advice, make sure you dont JUST use the mouse. Too many people keep their hand on the mouse all day... use the keyboard as much as possible (or find a good balance of the two). Make use of shortcuts etc that mean you dont have to use the mouse all day.

Also make sure you arm is supported. You need you keyboard to be far back as possible, not right next to the edge of the desk.

Good luck!

 

thanks for the good post

 

these movement are very important and i sure that most of the users never know this.

 

Thanks for the information

 

Very good thread,thank you

 

Thanks a lot.. these things we overlook often ;(

 

I've read this on email, actually it's really hard to position your hands specially if you work on longer hours. There's also a hand exercise to avoid this.

 

Intresting information ! thanks for the share !

 

You should be careful for not only your hands and back, but also your eyes! You should always maintain a good distance from your screen not to strain or over expose your eyes...
