Elbow
- One of the most recent health problems that mobile phones are accused of
causing is cubital tunnel syndrome, a condition known more widely as “cell
phone elbow“. Similar to carpal tunnel syndrome, it is apparently caused by the
frequent and repetitive use of the cell phone. It is said that the frequent bending
of your elbow to hold your mobile phone to your ear can affect a nerve in your
arm that leads to tingling sensations and reduced use of your hands.
