Question:
What can you do to prevent Carpal Tunnel?
Answers:
The first step is to use proper body mechanics when completing repetive tasks...maintain your wrist in the neutral postion when typing, or doing other similar tasks...do not let the wrist become hyper extended while working. If you have difficulty doing this, you can buy a wrist support to place in front of your keyboard. Your keyboard should also be at a hight where your forearms are parallel to the floor and your upper arm is against you side.
I agree with the comment about taking frequent brakes.
Some other considerations:
1. If you have diabetes, maintain adequate glucose control.
2. Avoid smoking
3. Drink pleanty of water and stay away from caffiene.
Ultimately, proper body mechanics are the key....
