La Renaissance ~~Triad Mage~~ ~~Banned~~ Veteran Member # 165	written Wednesday, June 4 2003 11:02 Profile Homepage #25 I had RSI problems when I was younger, but I don't any more. I think my wrists have shifted somehow to adapt to the conditions I'm constantly putting them under. That would make the most sense, anyway, as I'm a terrifying mutant who can spend 18+ hours a day on the computer and still have 20/20 vision and not suffer from carpal tunnel syndrome. -------------------- desperance -- je me souviens arena -- et je me souviens de vous Posts: 2449 \| Registered: Monday, October 15 2001 07:00

Mystery Man Shaper Member # 2350	written Thursday, June 5 2003 02:07 Profile #30 You can also get shortered tendons on your fingers from computer. (a self thought theory) If you bow your fingers, which you do to type on your keyboard, your triceps of your fingers relax, and become longer. The tendons shorten as long as you bow your fingers because the relaxed triceps serves use therefor, that moment. If you bow your fingers constantly, (or type on your computer constantly) your tendons stay shortened, so that it's harder to stiffen your fingers and "easier" to bow them. To avoid this, or perhaps even cure this, I think you have to stiffen your fingers occasionally to avoid shortened tendons.
