Question

Trish bought a new computer that she has been using for a few weeks. She is starting to experience pain in her wrists, back and neck. What measure should Trish take to reduce strain while working on the computer?

Answer 1

Answer:

1) She should not lean so much towards the computer and sit straight on a chair.

2) She should take her eyes off the screen every twenty minutes and look at a distant object for twenty seconds . She should follow this at each break and while doing this she should keep her head straight.

3) She should frequently drink water during her working hours.

4) She should do some stretching every 1 or 2 hrs of working time.

5) She could place some cold objects like a spoon, ice rapped in a cloth etc on her closed eyes. This would reduce the pain of her strained eyes.

6) Finally, she should reduce her computer usage time.
