i had a really bad rsi injury caused by excessive mouse usage. even the most ergonomic mice require us to do have our arm/wrist/hand in unnatural angles for long periods of time. injury is inevitable.

wow. didn’t know that. scary.

@stoppit

You should still get it seen to. There are probably some measures you can take to help it get better, otherwise it’s inevitable that it will get worse.

I will, Inshallah.

I was listening to a consultant (back specialist) on radio4 once. He works with athletes, ballet dancers, concert musicians (as they also sit in awkward positions for hours) as well as regular people, to help rid them of their back pain/problems. He said building core strength and the muscles that support the spine are really important for everyone. There are simple daily exercises that can be done for this.
