My elbow hurt so I bought a new chair!
Seems daft doesn't it. The physio's advice to exercise my muscles and all that did no good at all, so I think I must be doing something to aggravate it every day without realising it. Then I go to talk to Back in Action www.backinaction.co.uk who sell all sorts of stuff like wierd chairs and special beds to help people look after their bodies. They told me it's because of how I hold my mouse and that is because 1. My keyboard has numbers where the mouse should be - look at yours - I bet it does too! and 2. when I relax my arm the mouse rushes towards me and falls off the edge of the desk.
So I need a rocking chair that leans forward when I do and brings my shoulder above the desktop so my arm can stay bent at a right angle and not strain to stay straight at the same time as doing all the little mouse movements. That's what puts continuous strain on the elbow. Amazing.
