Chronic Pain

Coping with chronic pain is bad enough, but most of us still have to work while we cope.

As one who has had to deal with tendinitis and related repetitive stress problems as a freelance writer, I'd like to direct others with similar problems to Page 10 of the American Chronic Pain Association Chronicle this month, where there is a helpful diagram for those who work all day with computers.

If you don't know already, a proper workstation is of primary importance for both avoidance of and living with pain in your workplace.

Believe me, RSS (repetitive stress syndrome) is a lot easier to prevent than cure. Check it out, then email them at the address below to become a member. They do great good for those of us who suffer as we work.

Thanks for this reminder. Work station adjustment and proper posture do make a difference. I needed this to get me back into healthy work habits.
