Nursing a potential RSI
February 21, 2006I haven’t posted for almost a week. In fact, over the long holiday weekend I took a break from keyboarding. I’ve been trying to nurse some shoulder and elbow pain that I think may be RSI-related.
I’ve got an ergo evaluation scheduled tomorrow here at work. Somebody’s coming out to take a look at my workstation and see what I might be doing wrong.
I also bought a new task chair for my home office. I’ve been using a nice little tractor-style chair, i.e., no back rest. I like it a lot but I’m thinking the lack of a back rest could be part of the problem.
Hopefully with those two steps I’ll help reduce the strain on my arms and nip this RSI in the bud.
