Over 45 min on PC is surfing for trouble
More and more people, many of them in their 20's and 30's are falling prey to problems which are from prolonged computer use.
Three threat are
- cervical Spondylitis : this is often a result of bad posture, caused by the bending of the vertebral column while looking at the screen.
- carpal tunnel syndrome : numbness or burning sensation in the fingers caused by the long hours when the median nerve of the hand remains compressed due to mouse or keyboard use.
- computer vision syndrome : drying of cornea to reduced blinking rate, burning sensation/watering due to continuous contraction of cilliary nerve.
Do's and Dont's
- sit straight, ideally with some back support.
- Do not sit for long hours at a stretch . walk around a little bit every hour
- the screen should be just at the level of the eye.
- shift the position of the mouse every couple of hours
- do some neck and eye exercises, deep breathing.
