Pic related, all pain in my hand via over using mouse cleared up in a day.
I can even switch to my left hand comfortably.

Feel nothing in hand, see this post. Suddenly feel slight tinge in my wrist, not major but it's there.
It's a placebo effect right guys? Please tell me it's a placebo

I use an ergonomic mouse with an ergonomic mousepad.
I doubt that thing can help much.

certain wrist related moves do it and it is fucking weird

Only my right hands index finger hurts. Nothing else. What did they mean by this?
>>
>>332141981
define ergonomic

>>332141779
You're assuming that everyone here with wrist pain has it from carpel tunnel from overuse of a mouse and keyboard and not from something else unrelated.

Jokes on you. I lost feeling in my hand years ago when I smashed it moving furniture.

>check my finger and it's of course bleeding
>closer examination it's not just some little cut it's a gash going halfway across my middle finger and spreads open a 1/4th of an inch when I bend my finger

I bandaged it up but had to put a makeshift splint on it to keep from bending my finger so the wound would stay together. It's better today but hurts to much when I hold a controller so no vidya this weekend...
>>
>>332141981
It does if your wrist was killing from going side to side like mine.
Zero wrist movement at all with ergonomic mice.
>>
>tfw most likely broke or fractured my toe the other day and had a hypochondriac meltdown thinking it might be diabetes or something just as severe

i was sedentary for too long and thought it was being punished for it or some other irrational thought. live an alright lifestyle now and i just kind of snapped for some reason.
i should still see a doctor

you aren't supposed to move your wrist from side to side when you use a mouse lmao

I have carpal tunnel syndrome from work, plumbing. My brother, dad, and grandpa all have it, and all were plumbers.

If I don't work for a week or two, it dies down, but never goes away. Wearing splints at night is a world of difference though. Without them I wake up in the middle of the night with numb hands and sharp, shooting pain in my elbows. My finger tips go numb every now and then, but I just gotta rest my hands at my side and shake them to get the feeling back.

Wear splints to bed if you don't. It'll change your life.

My pain actually went away finally, I never did find out exactly what was wrong with my wrist/thumb but damn it felt like hell. Sometimes if I bent the wrong way I could feel my bone grating around halfway up my arm, or the bottom joint of my thumb would pop out.

Now that I'm wiggling my thumb around I can still feel it a little, but it's not near as bad as it used to be
>>
Used to get wrist tendonitis a lot a few years ago. Started doing those wrist exercises and haven't had a problem since.

>>332142097
Well when I bought them both they said ergonomic. Supposedly molded for long hours in front of the computer and so your hand fits better.

>>332142214
You need to rise the speed of the mouse if you have to move it from side to side.
>>
>>332137659
None of that here.

But then, habit-building with illustration basically means I perform all the shit needed with next to no wrist movement.

I bet you buy shit like magnetic bracelets

>>332143293
With that ass in my lap.

Otherwise just tense your back muscles, stay in that position with your head fairly high, and you'll be fine. It's just important not to let that slope set it.
>>
>>332143507
It works so far.
I don't know why you think ergonomic shit doesn't work. My mouse is from actek and my mouse pad is from steren.
>>
This isn't a problem as for some fucking reason I have absolutely fucking MASSIVE pollicis muscles. My entire goddamn hand has its own boob pillow underneath.

Shame about my CMT, brain damage and /v/ shitposting disease. Can't have it all.

How do you actually come down with that shit, anyway?

I've gotten runner's heel before, which is unbelievably annoying in the morning, but logic tells me my arm should be a fucking mess by now too, and I don't have any troubles with it.

Having two hands to jack off your boyfriends versus being crippled and straight.

I literally don't have a camera, mobile phone, fucking anything. I tried to look on google for a nice equivalent shot but no joy. Tell you what, I'll take a photo tomorrow and post it randomly on /v/ with my post. You'll eventually see my huge ass fucking thumb muscles.
