Hello everyone, my wrist is starting to hurt a little bit because I stay on the PC most of the day. Since I want to keep doing that and game a lot more, what should I do to prevent this pain and any serious consequences from this?
Lmao yall are weak af fr

grow up, get a skill, get a job, get a bitch, sex with bitch, have some chuds, play golf and drink with the boys, die
>>77579639yeah, it's called carpal tunnel. As far as I know it's caused by poor posture and the pain is the symptom, not the problem. Maybe youtube physical therapy videos.
Try a low carb diet. SRS
Get a handheld (I have a steam deck and a Legion Go) so you can game on your bed comfy.Otherwise find a way to stream your pc games on your TV and play with a controller on your couch
>>77579639Joint circles and stretches. At a minimum ALL of the joints in your hands and forearms.
>>77579639Do you have a wrist pad for your keyboard? You can also get mousepads with a wrist rest although they get in the way if gaming
>>77579639May sound bizarre but obviously as someone who found 4chan in 2006 I’ve used computers a lot and… biking, serious biking, did the most to help strengthen everything like that. I am reverse aging after doing it for 8 years and losing 100 lbs (motorcycle accident related mostly). I am also such a fan of trackballs now. So is Sakurai, creator of Kirby and Smash Bros, serious carpal tunnel sufferer.
>>77579744the keyboard doesn't but the mousepad does have a wrist rest, but sometimes I feel it doesn't help it very much
>>77579751cool, there's also those ergonomic mouse that you hold differently, do you think those could help?
>>77579639It’s probably carpal tunnel if you notice it tingling or weakness in the thumb, index, and middle finger, going up your forearm. Look up Knerr gliding techniques for the median nerve. If you suspect it could be that I’ve been dealing with it since June now from a lifting injury, it sucks, but it has been healing slow slowly, but surely lol.
Start console gaming.
>>77579639Y'all are lightweights, at least get a real working man's wrist injury

>>77579740Wdym ‘circles’
I am a professional guitarist for a world renowned death metal band and have generalized pain here
>>77580462This isn't health related
>>77580575why not?
>>77580593>I stay on the PC most of the day.
>>77579684no im not gonna spend all money on getting drunk doing drugs and fucking around thank you moishe
>>77580599which causes me a health issue, so I came to fitness board, where people talk about health, to talk about it
>>77579639Wrist curls
>>77579639>Hello everyone, my wrist is starting to hurt a little bit because I stay on the PC most of the day.Yeah but that's not the real problem. It sounds like you're not using your chair's armrests properly or your chair is not at the right height relative to your desk. I've never had that problem in my life.
>>77579639Get a vertical mouse!!!
>>77579639CIALIS (TADALAFIL) WILL GIVE YOU WRIST PAINI LIKE BONERS BUT I DON'T LIKE WRIST PAINI TOOK 5-10MG EVERY DAY BUT NOW ONLY 10MG ONCE A WEEKIF THIS HELPS YOU I AM HAPPY
Play with a controller with wrist weights
>>77581634ThisI hate PC faggots
>>77580620Its not a "health issue" because you are doing it to yourself and are unwilling to stop the behavior which is causing it. Its self injury. Thats not a health issue.
>>77580620i sit on the pc all day too i'm fine ur just a weak bitch

>>77581641Look at the phoneposter and laugh
>>77581599Meme
>>77581841why meme?
>>77582114Yeah this totally isn't a meme
>>77582239do you look at a brown cow and think choccy milk comes out of it?
>>77582114I have one and while it feels more comfortable it hasn't really helped with tendonitis, but maybe it would've gotten worse without it. Anyway, what helped my pain is lifting, which did actually make it lessen quite a bit, even if it hasn't fully disappeared.
Oh have you tried dead hangz with fat gripz
>>77579639>what should I do to prevent this pain and any serious consequencesGrab a dry hand towel and pretend like you are trying to wring it out slowly. It does something to slowly unfuck the nerves in your hands / arms. Do it like 2 or 3 times a day for a week or so. If it's more serious it might take a month or two.
>>77579954They certainly can. I work on a PC all day at work and when I'm goofing off at home too. Switched to an ergonomic one and it's largely stopped the pain in my hands and wrists. If yours is severe though definitely go see a physician to test for carpal tunnel or the like. Mine was only mild but enough to be a bother.
