freakin' RSI.

Posted by sherockachild22 - October 4th, 2008


Gah! it practically all my fault but who gives a rats arse.
it freaking hurts, and its killing my arm.

Its gay to have it at this age.
and the wrist brace is so restricting.
i have to type with one hand...

And if you don't know what RSI is.... repetitive strain injury
proberly caused by the amount i type... and playing the tenor...

Symptoms of an overuse injury can be any of the following:
-burning, aching or shooting pain that can be restricted to small sites, such as fingertips, or settle in a larger area such as the forearm (Yep, hurts like crazy)
-tremors, clumsiness and numbness (numbness yeahhh...)
-fatigue or lack of strength (ehh... not so much)
-weakness in the hands or forearms to the extent that it is difficult to perform even simple tasks such as lifting a bag of shopping (yep, i couldn't lift a plastic chair. what the hell!)
-difficulty with normal activities like opening doors, chopping vegetables, turning on a tap (i couldn't open the door to get out of a shop. D: )
-chronically cold hands, particularly the fingertips. (no thanks)

And i gotta go back to school, and limit my activities... HA! blow that for a joke!
But i guess i have to rest it, and get mum to make an appointment at the doctor.. eh.

eesh, sound like you have finger cancer or somehing...

Me 'n' Kim'll always be there for support, remember

Yeah.. i suppose...
but i could have to have an op. freakin hell.
although its not that bad yet

So that's why your always wearing that wrist thing...and with a Batman logo on it?

^_^

Anyway...

Don't strain yourself...take frequent breaks and maybe soak your hand in some warm water.

Uhhh, yeah...

Yeah, i have been a little bit latly. its hasn't been hurting as much anymore....
