How prolonged work at the computer can affect the health of the hands

Long and exhausting work at the computer leads to numbness of the fingers and severe pain in the wrist. Doctors call it tunnel syndrome. According to them, a weak point can be found in every human organ. In the hands are the wrists.

There is a special channel in the wrist that provides blood to the entire hand. But with prolonged monotonous actions, the load on this channel increases greatly. Due to heavy loads in the wrist, the nerve is damaged, which leads to severe pain. Over time, the pain will only increase, and longer breaks will be needed to eliminate it.

So far, doctors do not have a way to treat tunnel syndrome, so sufferers of this disease suppress the pain with the help of painkillers. Doctors advise to carefully monitor the position of the hands when working at the computer, so as not to create strain on the wrists.
