Hello, all! Over the last week I have developed a very painful problem in my right wrist/arm. It started in my thumb last week, and over the course of the last week, it has spread up my arm. I am worried about developing CTS.
I have switched my mouse to my left hand, but my right arm is still hurting a lot... and I don't want this to develop in my left arm as well. I think it had to do with the mac mouse --- which seems to require a whole hand movement to click, as opposed to a finger. Just a guess.
Anyhow, does anyone have any mouse recommendations for me? I tried buying a mouse with a roller ball in it, but it didn't help at all. It hurts to just reach for a mouse with my right arm at this point.
Does anyone here have experience with this sort of thing?
