Important: Computer User Health Information
In recent years, medical attention on occupational injuries has identified normal,
seemingly harmless activities as a potential cause of a wide range of problems
collectively known as Repetitive Stress Injuries (RSI) or Cumulative Trauma
Disorders (CTD). It is now recognized that any repetitive motion may contribute
to these health problems. As a computer user, you might also be at risk.
By paying attention to the way you perform your work, use your computer and
phone, play sports, and work around the house, you can identify the behaviors
that may be putting you at risk. If you experience pain, swelling, numbness, or
weakness in your wrists or hands (especially during sleep), see your physician
immediately. These symptoms could mean that you are developing a repetitive
stress injury that requires prompt medical attention. For more detailed informa-
tion, consult your doctor, www.HealthyComputing.com or a reputable book.
