Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Carpal tunnel is defined by compression of the median nerve at the level of the wrist. This nerve passes through the carpal tunnel along with nine tendons which help you bend your fingers. The "tunnel" is created by the carpal bones and transverse carpal ligament. When inflammation occurs at the wrist this creates pressure on the nerve. The pressure leads to symptoms such as numbness or tingling in the fingers, pain radiating up the arm, and night pain. These symptoms can be evident when driving, holding newspapers and dropping objects. Compression of the nerve can result from repetitive use of the hands and writs, diabetes, and/or hormonal changes such as pregnancy.

DeQuervain's Syndrome: Also known as "washerwoman's sprain" this syndrome can be a product of overuse. This is and inflammatory disorder in which pain and discomfort is felt along the edge of the thumb and wrist. The tendons that straighten your thumb become inflamed following prolonged repetitive activity. The symptoms include tenderness at the base of the thumb, aching over the side aspect of the thumb and wrist. This discomfort can be aggravated by bending the thumb or straightening the thumb and with various wrist motions.

Tendinitis: General terminology for inflammation of a tendon. This may result from overuse or repetitive use of hand or wrist within varied activities.

New Computer Mouse Is Also a Heart Rate Monitor

A mouse pad to keep your mouse hand warm.

by Donald Melanson

Watches that monitor your heart rate may be commonplace these days (because, you know, they're actually useful), but a mouse that keep watch on your ticker -- well, that's something you don't see everyday. ASUS seems to think that's a shame, however, and it's set out to rectify things somewhat with its new heart-monitoring Vito W1 wireless mouse.

Apart from an apparently really simple heart-monitoring application that comes with it though, this one looks to be about as standard as wireless mice get, with it boasting a 1,200 dpi resolution, a 2.4GHz USB receiver, five programmable buttons and not much else. No word on a price just yet, nor is there any indication of a planned release 'round these parts.

Dear Oprah & Doctor Oz.... help us solve the cold mouse hand problem!

Searching for an answer to define the "cold mouse hand" syndrome, Oprah and Doctor Oz were sent an online letter. We haven't heard back from them, and if/when we do, you'll read about it here.

Here's what we wrote:

Many people may not be aware of a condition called "Cold Mouse Hand." It affects computer users who work using a computer mouse. It's not carpal tunnel and shouldn't be confused with other mouse hand medical conditions. I believe the "cold mouse hand" problem is a fairly new discovery.

I started using a computer in the early 90's, and I owned and operated an ecommerce site for over 12 years. My work required me to sit in front of a computer using the mouse. A/C offices, fans, drafts and chilly weather would cause my mouse hand to get so cold my finger tips would become numb. The only relief to the cold mouse hand was to stop working, and that was not an option. I tried pulling a sweater over my mouse hand and wear fingerless gloves to keep it warm and that didn't work. I bought computer gadgets that promised to keep the mouse hand warm, and they were either non-ergonomic, caused pain, or were too small.

In February 2007, after suffering from a cold mouse hand for many years, I decided to obtain a provisional patent for a "Mouse House Hand Warmer" to address and fix the problem. But, I was still too busy operating my business to do anything with the patent.

In May 2008, I sold my ecommerce site and decided to research the cold mouse hand problem to focus on a solution. I was surprised to discover the problem was experienced by many people.

In June 2008, I made a Mouse Hand Warmer using blanket fabric, tested the prototype, and it worked. The Mouse Hand Warmer was born! I don't suffer anymore from a cold mouse hand.

If Doctor Oz finds the mouse hand syndrome, not carpal tunnel, but the "cold mouse hand" problem, an interesting, new topic, please ask him to shed some light on this mysterious computer geeks' situation. If you look for little inventions to address new problems, I will participate by sharing the problem and the solution with your audience. I hope you find this story and it's solution unique and worthy of a discussion topic.

Keep your hands warm this winter

Mouse Hand Warmers:

If you sit and work at the computer for long hours and your mouse hand gets cold from being exposed to the chilly air, there's a solution. The Mouse Hand Warmer is designed to insulate body heat by keeping your mouse hand covered with a warm, fleece, cozy blanket. Slip your favorite mouse pad and mouse inside the hand warmer and work with plenty of room for movement. The non slip surface keeps the mouse pad secure on your desk top. Uses no electricity and has no cords to get tangled on your desk. This is one of the best, new computer gadgets we discovered to keep your mouse hand covered and warm. Works good in air-conditioned offices, too. Keep it on hand all year long. — Bernie Karr

Powered Heaters Gloves:

With the northeast hit by a mammoth snowstorm over the weekend, it's time to break out the serious winter gear. But even the thickest gloves can only do so much to warm chilly fingers. Gloves with powered heaters can help, though it'll be back to blowing on your hands when you run out of juice. Good thing that's all you have to do to give your hands some extra warmth when you have a pair of Gorgonz Exhale gloves. Built into each mitt is a small port that funnels air through valves into pockets around your fingers. When it gets cold, all you have to do is follow instinct and blow warm air from your lungs into the ports, and the Exhale system does the rest — delivering the heat all the way to your fingertips. Best of all, it doesn't need any power, so spend your battery money on some hot chocolate instead. — Peter Pachal

Caring for Hands

Hands play an important role in communication and most visible parts of you, but they also take a lot of abuse. Your hands are probably on view a lot more often than you realize. Hands tell you how you lead your life and how you take care of your body and skin. Take good care of your hands. The skin on the backs of your hands has few oil glands so it shrivels and chaps easily upon exposure especially around the joints. Protect skin with gloves in winters and use moisturizer and sunscreen all year round. Moisturize your hands at least four times a day. Wear rubber gloves while working at home and in the garden. Protect and prevent your hands from aging and abuse. Protect your hands from the ravages of changing weather.

Always use gloves for washing clothes and utensils soak hands in a bowl of warm water to which 1 tsp of corn starch has been added for 5 minutes daily after finishing the house-hold chores. Use hand cream often and keep a bottle of it every where you visit frequently such as bathroom or vanity, kitchen and bedroom. Mix glycerin, lemon juice and a few drops of rose water and use it to massage your hands every other day. Exfoliate the hands at least once a week with a nice face exfoliater. One can also use weekly the night face cream on the hands before going to bed. For soft and beautiful hands, apply Vaseline or any other good moisturizer before going to bed. Hand exercise not only stimulates proper circulation, it also helps in maintaining the perfect shape of hand and fingers.

Finger is also part of your hand. finger massage is using four fingers from the opposite hand, start at the top of the finger and knead your way down to the tip of each finger. A paraffin bath which heats therapy for hands relief from muscle tension, and moisturizes dry hands can be really good. Hand care is something that you can do at home. The best way to take care of your hands is use our hands to do all the work in and outside the house many of us pay very little attention to taking care of them. If one is having dry skin, then one should scrub the hands under lukewarm salt water. It is an effective home exfoliater for dry skin hands. After scrubbing, massage the hands with a good moisturizer.
