MedicalConspiracies- Avoid Neck and Back Pain at the Computer

I could have saved myself a lot of pain and suffering these past two months, if I’d have known this sooner!

 

 

Avoid Neck and Back Pain at the Computer

By Dr. David Rempel,

Professor of Occupational Medicine at UC San Francisco, on setup up an ergonomically correct workstation

 

1.        Make sure your chair has comfortable low back and arm support.  Adjust the height so that your feet are flat on the floor and you have legroom to spare.

2.       Place your monitor so that your eyes line up with the top of the monitor (the screen should be a bit lower if you wear bifocals).

3.       Position the screen an arm’s length away, avoiding glare from windows and lights. 

4.       The keyboard should be at elbow height and the keys easy to press.  Use the desk or arm rest to support your forearms.

5.       Keep the mouse close to the keyboard.  To avoid dragging, which can lead to arm pain, clean the roller ball regularly.  For some a mouse pad may help.

6.       Check your posture.  Relax the muscles in your forearms, shoulders and neck by sitting straight up or leaning back in your chair. 

7.       Stand up and stretch every 20 min.

 

Love and blessings,
