Ruins your gaming experience
I've been gaming 5+ hours a day for 25 years, never had this issue. Is it actually just genetics?
I use oppai mousepads specifically because the cleavage creates a nice "nest" to cradle my wrist, it's more comfortable than just a solid bar.
They don't do shit lmao, you got scammed bozo. Dumb ass weeb nigga
i use an ergo mouse for like 90% of my time on my computer and all my wrist pain went away within a few weeks. i switch back to my real mouse/mousepad for games that require precision like FPS or whatever.
Only times I’ve ever had wrist pain is fucked up controls. Like constantly sprint dashing in Warframe.
nah before I was using wrist supports I got painful wrists all the time if I played for more than 1-2 hours at a stretch, especially shooters or PVP in MMO's
literally had to quit competitve fps because of this shit
Elon, just chip me already...
quit playing 250+ APM gookclick simulators.
fix your gaming experience
after I started using vertical mouse all the wrist pain went into my thumb
that's weird
newfag
For me it's this mother fucker.
Not really—vertical mice shift the strain from your wrist to your thumb and forearm muscles. If your grip isn't adjusted properly or you're overcompensating, it can cause soreness in different spots. Ergonomics are weird like that.
For me it's both.
Don't worry, eventually it gets so bad it works its way into your shoulder :)
get a vertical mouse
for me it's trigger finger
true.
you're body simply isnt designed to handle a conventional mouse all day.
Go exercise your forearms, wristlets
My wrists never got bad because I do hand stretches but I did wind up getting arthritis in both my index fingers. wtf do I do about it?
remember to fix your posture
video game enjoyer, masturbator, manual laborer
wrists are in tip top shape
don't anchor your arm weight with your wrist to the desk, anchor arm weight with elbow at the same height as your mouse
You have a pinched nerve, or hypermobility
Either way you have to get your joints pushed back into place and do myofascial release
chirovoodoo
I cast
Spondyloarthritis
weak
Genetics AND weakness.
wasting your life and ruining your health on video games
Why is the *right* option always the most painful? why can't sitting just tbe sitting I can't even relax without some health bullshit telling me i need to relax in an uncomfortable way. *good* posture feels like shit to hold, why is it good?
I cast
Reflect
Osteopathy actually. I wouldn't see a chiropractor
because you have really weak back muscles. litterally workout and sit straight and your muscles will adapt
myo work feels so fucking weird, they just press in one spot and my entire arm starts freaking out
theres nothing weeaboo about titty mousepads
you gotta be in more pain bro
i think i will simply be comfortable and live with bad posture
inflammation is more often caused by a bad diet rather than genetics
PS: you're a fucking casual anyways so you don't even count
enjoy ruining your health even more
I'm a child so my body has no natural wear and tear yet. Is it just good genes?
No
Weak genes.
where's your gamer bump?
I don't have CT but instead I started having pain in the outside-top portion of the wrist joint when moving it in certain way, it's going on for like 2 months now so I guess something's actually fucked and I have to go to a doctor to get it checked.
wasting your life on video games
Post hairline.
I got this a couple of times as a kid but I evolved past it and haven't had it since
Anon, nobody here plays games
I was scared of this when I heard about it at like 16 but it never happened to me and I work on a computer with shit posture every day. I guess some people are just genetic dead ends who deserve to die instead of adding strain to our struggling health care system.
What gets me about these macho self-help coaches is that it's all normal shit you should have learned about in Sunday school or a fricken episode of Arthur. You don't have to be so money-focused about it but basic diligence and self-discipline are timeless virtues every society has taught their children. But for a segment of incredibly dull, insecure young men, they apparently don't believe it unless it's framed as an action protagonist revealing his secret life hack.
Let me guess, you're 25 now?
off by a decade bucko
i’m pretty sure this fucked up my mouse grip. using my other hand is noticeably more comfortable and stable even though it’s impossible to aim.
No, your body just adapted because you spent puberty playing video games instead of going outside or having sex.
1 your grip style
2 have you suffered from gay wrist
accidentally opened this image while using the mouse
fingertip grip, how screwed am I?
lel
is this fixable? I have days where I can't do flat hand push ups because of this
you have fried dopamine receptors and seek fast dopamine. seek help
Why is the *right* option always the most painful?
The less painful option makes you sit still for longer, putting strain in one place. The more painful ones make you shuffle around constantly, distributing the stress and offering frequent relief to all parts.
Thus, you should strive to sit in the most painful position you can manage.
You have 5 years left then.
no he meant he was 11 when he wrote that
aside from just resting it the fix is cutting the tendon sheath inside the wrist to relieve pressure
I switched to a trackball at work for a few months, it's better if you have pain even though I switched back to a regular mouse
this shit literally made my hand hurt more lol
PC gaming is pure soulless and detrimental to your body
Stop drinking caffeine, I guarantee your inflammatino will disappear
I got carpal tunnel on both my wrists, wish nobody had to deal with this shit
why do i never have this shit and i was a neet for years? is it just a boomer problem? i mean the worst i would have is my spine being bent like a fucking goblin so i would remind myself to stand up straight
If you're stupid enough to fall for this you deserve what's coming.
my issues got fixed by simply putting my mouse and keyboard further away on the desk so that my arms have a place to rest whenever I use them
took a while getting used to but as long as your arm is not just hanging there you are going to be OK
can confirm, my pelvis was pushed a bit forward giving my posture this retarded S shape
got a bit better when I started working out a bit though
Stop drinking caffeine, I guarantee your inflammatino will disappear
Seconding this.
As I stopped drinking anything caffeine-containing(coffee, cocoa, tea, chocolate, any sorts of colas and bepis, etc) the inflammation went significantly weaker.
Ruins your life for months
Carpal tunnel is a meme diagnosis given to women so their pain can be validated.
No, you're not crazy, you definitely have some kind of injury, it's- uhhh.... uhhh what's it called? Car-ca-carpal tun-tunnel! Carpal tunnel, yeah that's it!
Oh god, Doctor! Is it serious?
It's not serious, just like put an ice pack on it or I dunno, something lol
Billions upon billions of dollars are spent on meme diagnoses to make women feel better, I wish I was joking.
lol this fucking guy
....
Played...
What?
The only game that activates my carpal tunnel is league of legends, so I no longer play it.
Conan O'Brien shaved his head?
