Health-related information about computer use
Muscle soreness, eye fatigue, and other discomforts and injuries sometimes
associated with using computers can occur from performing any number of
activities. In fact, misuse of the same muscles during multiple activities can
create a problem that might not otherwise exist. For example, if you engage in
nonwork activities that involve repetitive stress on the wrist—such as
bicycling—and also use your computer keyboard improperly, you may
increase your likelihood of developing wrist problems. Some individuals are at
greater risk of developing these problems because of their health, physiology,
lifestyle, and general exposure to stress. Work organization and conditions,
such as workstation setup and lighting, also play a part in your overall health
and comfort. Preventing health problems is a multifaceted task that requires
careful attention to the way you use your body every hour of every day.
