Been away from the blogging for a few days, as I’ve been battling a strange case of carpal … arm.
Over the years I’ve had varying boughts of hand, wrist and arm stiffness because of all the hours logged in at the computer, both at work and through my writing, but the last month or so it’s really been getting rough. Because of some combination of arm angle and chair height, I’ve had my arm resting on the desk at a strange angle, and not only has it been causing me some wrist and arm soreneBeen away from the blogging for a few days, as I’ve been battling a strange case of carpal … arm.
Over the years I’ve had varying boughts of hand, wrist and arm stiffness because of all the hours logged in at the computer, both at work and through my writing, but the last month or so it’s really been getting rough. Because of some combination of arm angle and chair height, I’ve had my arm resting on the desk at a strange angle, and not only has it been causing me some wrist and arm soreness, but it’s been causing a wrench on the right side of my neck.
A trip to the chiropractor worked out the kink–at least for now–but it turns out I haven’t been sitting high enough in my chair, so I’m working on some new posture.
So now that I’m making some physical changes in how I set and rest my arm on the computer, I expect to be back at the computer clacking away with regularity.
Carpal neck. Who knew?
