Product Information

Over the last few weeks, I’ve felt a nagging and persistent pain in my elbow, right between those two little bones on the underside (if you hold your arm slightly bent). Computer elbow is an inevitable health problem remote workers and writers might experience in the coming months. You can treat this condition and prevent reoccurrence by making a healthier lifestyle choice. Working out, stretching, and reducing typing time are a few possible solutions. If you’re dealing with a computer elbow, you need to heal before implementing ergonomic suggestions. The SKYZONAL Keyboard Mount Tray not only helps you maintain neutral wrists as you type, but also instantly increases your desk space. This extra-wide tray mounts in at desk level and can be adjusted or folded as needed.

Multi Color Available,Decent Decorative Looking and Protective Desk Decor Accessories on Your Desktop; Computer elbow can have many debilitating effects on your daily life. These do not last long if you self-manage physical symptoms in the early stages. The right treatment and altered routine can cause elbow pain to subside within three-six weeks. It all depends on the severity of your condition, age, and previous elbow injuries. My position of work shouldn’t be an issue. I work with both arms fully resting on the desk since i have a large surface. But following your article, i will try to make sure my right elbow is at a 90 degree angle… It was more at a 135 degree. But i think immobility of the whole arm for long period (30 min to 2 hrs) was the culprit! Chronic exhaustion” is a good term for what’s happening here. We use the muscles and tendons over and over again, tensing them consistently without relaxing them often enough. The result is a repetitive stress injury. We experience inflammation in the muscles, and possibly in the tendons as well (though there is some medical debate about whether tendons actually become inflamed). There may be tiny tears in the fibers of both. What to Do First Apart from this, look at how you sleep. Avoid resting on the side with the affected elbow to ensure that it does not get pressed while you are sleeping. When Should You Seek Medical Advice?In the beginning, you will experience mild soreness in the affected elbow. It can lead to chronic muscle fatigue, a dull throbbing, or ache. Additionally, your muscles might cramp. It may cause discomfort when you move your arm. To make resting your arms on the Skyzonal more comfortable and to help maintain neutral wrists, you can slope the entire tray up to 10° downwards. This article discusses computer elbow in greater detail along with recommending practical steps to alleviate pain. The Pretty See is ambidextrous and can be positioned to support either your left or right arm. It also has an adjustable 180° ball joint that enables the armrests to swivel and get out of the way or cater to a different working posture easily. This is a great feature missing in many other desk armrests on the market. Relax your shoulders: Do you ever notice that your shoulders are up around your ears while you’re working? Remind yourself to relax. Muscle tension in the shoulders can radiate down into the arms.

Have you observed a tingling feeling in your elbow? Or maybe you experience continuous elbow pain when you move your arm? Excessive use of mouse and keyboard are amongst the common causes of computer elbow. You can avoid this fate by ensuring that you do not strain too much when you use these devices. Mouse Aside from being easy to use and durable, this alloy rotating desk extension offers a wide range of motion to support all of your arm postures as you mouse, write, or even use the keyboard.

Unlike the Pretty See, however, the Vivo comes with a 4.2” x 2.4” memory foam palm rest and enlarged area to rest your mouse on. This helps keep your mouse close to you whatever the distance between your chair and the desk. Get off work (if possible) and rest for a few days. If you can’t take a leave from work, reduce typing time and hours spent on digital devices. In turn, this will give strained muscles and tendons time to sufficiently heal. Having a desk drawer means the clutter stays inside. It minimizes muscle work required to reach the keyboard and mouse.

Performance-wise, there’s nothing to complain about the Skyzonal. However, the quality of the sewing is on the sloppy side. Ice it: Ice can help tame muscle inflammation, and can also stimulate the tissue to encourage healing. Ice as many times as you like as long as it seems to be helping. I type, though. A lot. That got me wondering. Is tennis elbow—or “computer elbow”—another painful consequence of the writing life? Today, however, it’s much more likely to be those who type away at the computer for hours who complain of elbow pain. The medical term is “lateral epicondylitis,” though it’s also been called “shooter’s elbow.” A classic case of strain caused by overwork, it can develop in three ways:Finally, I bought one of those bamboo charcoal elbow sleeves. I really think it helps keep the tendonitis from returning. The advertising is a little misleading though. It uses good quality foam, but it isn’t memory foam. It also accumulates dirt and sweat faster because of its velvety finish.

Last but not least, do you tend to rest your elbows more often on the desk than on the chair? If so we suggest giving the Jelbows Ergonomic Gel Pads a try. Available in 4 colors, these medium-soft pads are cheap, portable, and do a great job of cushioning your elbows against the hard surface of your desk.Keyboard placement is equally important in this situation. Place it directly in front of you, so your wrists extend in a straight line when you type. Buy a split keyboard to distribute the pressure placed on extended wrists and arms. I also put myself on an anti-inflammatory diet and supplement regimen. No sugar or gluten. Nothing processed (no “Frankenfood”), and limited dairy. I also added numerous anti-inflammatory supplements such as turmeric, ginger, high-quality omega3 oil, and boswellia to my daily intake. It took about 2 weeks, but my elbow/forearm pain disappeared. Amazing. (I’ve also lost 28 pounds.) I know this sounds difficult, but I sure am glad I suffered through the week or so it took for my body to adjust. Just like the Pretty See, the Vivo has a 180° rotation feature which allows you to find the right angle for support. One user especially liked this, saying that it helped alleviate the stress on his wrist and shoulder.
