Carpal Tunnel fix?

Re: Carpal Tunnel fix?

avoid all repetitive action involving wrist, meaning quit sm/ffr/rubic's
doesn't hurt when you start playing doesn't mean your not hurting it, you are wearing away your cartilage when you force you hand down on the keyboard.
Cartilage damages doesn't really heal, symptoms does get lighter over time, but as you age, it starts to get sensitive to temperature. Meaning it will hurt like jacking rato on 1.5xmod when its winter or some ..unusual weather.
Take glucosamine regularly, helps.

*Sigh* This thread is depressing, its foreboding my eventual CTS/RSI from playing FFR plus I also have hyper flexibility in my fingers and wrists (E.g when pushed my palm can touch my wrist) which gives me a heightened chance of getting arthritis at a young age.

Guess I'll take a break for a few months like people have suggested to stop this from happening.

Yeah the obvious solution is to simply stop playing hard songs, or to not play at all, which kinda sucks.

don't play often

breaks help you improve anyway

Didn't look like it helped much. 330 Boos for RATO? Not Rubix.

It's tough to completely "cure" if it can even be cured at all.

Sounds like cancer...

I just have been stuck with the cold hands (though not as bad) and the strange fingers that get stuck.

... Even I get that. I started playing 0.22 years ago. Seems like you get it from the start, if you understand me.

You just need to title, the rest is completely off topic.

Re: Carpal Tunnel fix?

One of the reasons why I quit SM and FFR and I only play once every 2 weeks or so is because of this. Last time I played was a couple weeks ago, and I was playing some hard songs on SM when my left wrist kinked out and hurt for 2-3 days. I guess just limit your playing to once a week and take breaks during that day.
