Ibuprofen, 3 tabs every 4 to 6 sm

hours with food, faithfully for a few days. You may need a short oral steroid pack to calm things down. Cranky Beach is right about keeping your wrists absolutely straight. Try raising your chair or sitting on a big book. Use a chair without arm rests. The problem most likely is in your elbow or shoulder and not just your wrist. I spent a lot of time with neurologists, orthopedists, and physical therapy. I finally went to a chiropractor who did a few manipulations and taught me some stretching exercises which helped a lot. I go once a month and lay on a nice heated roller bed. I have bad insurance and the chiro. just charges me a flat rate. My sympathies go out to you.

i use the tabs
i set up my machine to always keep 3-4 tabs open (tools, internet options, tabs). rather than alt-tab, i mouse to the other tab and look up whatever. i can leave that one on a page i keep returning to, and have yet another one open for other searchess. works good for me. don't need that much ram to do it either.
It's ibuprofen, I'm pretty sure. nm

a handful of ibuprofen??
well......if you don't start vomiting blood (j/k)......
i would stretch it out, if it is muscular. stretch just until you feel it and hold the stretch. DONT bounce or ease in and out of it. gently stretch.
if it is more from a disk, lay on your side in the fetal position, knees as close to your chest as you can get.
good luck. hate to see anyone have to back out of a shopping trip for ANY reason.
Is it ibuprofen or acetaminophen that can cause elevated BP?
I take ibuprofen usually on a daily basis
although really should not. I have this in the bilateral wrists so it cannot be just the mouse use alone. A certain movement with the wrists elicits such excruciating pain, you probably know though. Am glad not doing anything real serious, like brain surgery or the like, when this pain hits.
And some places DO keep tabs on who keeps rejecting jobs. Best to just do what comes along.

Gentle stretching and ibuprofen initially,
then as it gets bearable, take up walking AT LEAST twice a week. Walk at a good speed with good posture, about 2 miles/45 minutes. The most logical way to keep a back working right when you sit in a chair all day is to walk regularly.
I'm 44, and thankfully all I get are muscle aches. At times there will be actual point tenderness in one of those (2) little dimples on your sacrum, you know, right in that area where a lot of tattoos are put? If you get that, you can massage that spot. It indicates a muscular problem, which is good, and it means you are too tight and need more exercise and especially stretching. The most important direction to stretch (since we are curled up in a C position so much of the day) is exercises that arch the back, so learn safe and effective stretches for that direction. What trainers are saying about stretching lately is stretch after exercise, not so much before, and hold each stretch longer. There are some muscles that don't even engage in the stretch until you've held it 30 seconds. I think piriformis is an important stretch.
It's very relaxing and restorative to stretch the right way.
Hope you are feeling better soon.
Personally I don't charge for tabs and hard returns - sm
but then again it would not make a big difference for me. I just went over my last invoice and re-did it including spaces, tabs and hard returns, my invoice went up a whole $1.70. I will live w/o the extra $3.40 a month. On another point, I try not to put 2 spaces after my last period of each report (mine are just single block paragraphs on each patient) so I don't "pad" the invoice that way either. Now if I did a lot of reports with tabs and returns then I probably would bill for them, as it is a keystroke. As for how to phrase it, I thought you have already put it quite well, but I think asking for a cent raise might be too much, .005 would probably more than compensate you for your "loss" if you don't count the tabs/returns anymore. Run an invoice and see what the $$$ would be with .005 and .01 raises. Good luck.
Look through the Help section in it and just start opening up all the tabs and playing

Set up your tabs first - then use the hanging indent command Ctrl+T
