Muscles and tendons can become painful with repetitive movements and awkward postures. Symptoms of these overuse injuries include pain, swelling, stiffness of the joints, weakness and numbness.
Preventing computer-related overuse injuries Tips to avoid overuse injuries of the hand or arm include:
-Position the mouse as close as possible to the side of the keyboard. -Use your whole arm, not just your wrist, when using the mouse. -Type lightly and gently.

Tips to avoid eyestrain include:
-Tilt the screen slightly to avoid reflections or glare. -Make sure the screen is not too close to your face. -Put the screen either at eye level or slightly lower.
