Computer Use Problems Common in Arthritis Patients

When your mouse hand gets cold it's difficult to use the computer. This is true for anyone with a cold mouse hand, not just people with arthritis. But, just think how the intensity increases when a medical condition is involved with using the computer with cold hands! Read more about the value of infrared heat USB hand warmers here.....

Submitted by Ramona Bates MD
Posted under: Arthritis Pain Treatment


Nancy Baker, Sc.D., of the University of Pittsburgh, and colleagues report more than 75% of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), osteoarthritis (OA), or fibromyalgia report problems with discomfort when using a computer. The report was published in the May issue of Arthritis Care & Research.





Arthritis patients often choose less physically demanding jobs, such as administrative or clerical positions. These days those jobs are very likely to involve computer time.

Dr. Baker and colleagues surveyed 1,190 patients with RA (502), OA (406), or fibromyalgia (282) about their computer use and associated problems. Three hundred and fifteen responded. Most had difficulties with their chairs -- such as having a hard time getting comfortable, standing up, or sitting down. These issues were followed by problems with the keyboard, mouse, and monitor.

Patients with fibromyalgia reported significantly more problems involving the keyboard, mouse, and monitor than those with rheumatoid arthritis or OA.

The rates of reported discomfort using the computer is 10-15% in the general population. Patients with arthritis can experience pain and discomfort issue even under ideal circumstances. It is important for these patients and their workplaces to work on ergonomic issues to try to solve or reduce these issues.

How Does an Infrared Heating System Work
by Darren Chow from the California Chronicle


Are you considering installing a heating system for your home? If your prime concern is to have an effective and energy efficient system, consider installing an infrared heating system. Question is, how does an infrared system work, and how can it help you save energy and money?

An infrared heating system is also known as a heat radiation system. Unlike other heating systems, this system uses electromagnetic waves to generate heat. When the system is turned on, waves are circulated in the room. But no heat is actually generated unless the waves come into contact with a solid surface - walls, furniture, or human beings.

That is why when you have an infrared system installed, the actual room temperature may appear to be lower when compared to other more conventional systems. At least that is what the thermometer says. But the thermometer doesn't know that heat is generated upon impact. Human beings will be able to feel the heat as it is being generated, and comfort starts to set in.

Because of this unique ability to generate heat upon contact, infrared systems can be used to produce heat for different zones. Energy is directed to zones where it is needed. In other words, the system can direct energy to zones where there are people. This helps to save energy.

The energy efficiency of the system depends on several factors. The way infrared systems work is a big bonus by itself. But other factors such as how heat is being managed throughout the house also comes into the picture. For example, insulation plays a big part in heat retention. With proper insulation, the objects in the house can retain the heat energy for longer periods of time, hence reducing the reliance on the infrared heating system.

Windows also play a big role. If you have poor quality windows that don't help to retain heat, you will be using up more energy to produce the heat that is being lost constantly. When you combine these factors with a infrared heating system, you can save as much as 40% of your energy bills. In addition, infrared heating systems are also one of the cleanest systems in the world. There is nothing to burn (think fireplaces), and there is no carbon emission. All you need to do is to flick a switch, and electromagnetic waves will be generated.

The heat is almost instant. There is no need to wait for heat to be dispersed around the house. This wait is common if you employ normal heating systems. That is because once the heat has been generated, you still have to wait for the heat to be conducted via ducts or pipes to other parts of the house. Obviously, electromagnetic waves travel much faster. Homeowners will start to feel warmer and more comfortable very quickly. Learn more about infrared heating system and other home heating systems.

Hand Therapy: 10 Reasons to Use a Heated Mouse

If you or someone you know suffers with cold hand pain associated with computer use, this article is for you. There are many medical conditions with cold hand symptoms related to hand pain -- carpal tunnel, arthritis, diabetes and poor circulation. Simple advice given to people who want to avoid hand surgery and medication include the use of heat, exercise and behavior modification.

If you have hand problems when using the computer, consider the use of infrared heat therapy. It's simple. It's easy, and it's fun! Infrared heat hand therapy is simple because it's USB heat from the computer. It's easy because infrared heat is generated from the computer to the computer's mouse, mouse pad and keyboard pad plugged into the computer. It's fun because you can sit and use the computer during your infrared heat hand therapy treatment.

There are probably hundreds of reasons why a person with a cold mouse hand, cold computer hands or hand pain should use USB heat ergonomic computer accessories. Here are ten reasons why you should use an USB heated, warm mouse:

1 - USB heat is cost-effective. In today's economy, we need to look at ways to cut costs. Keeping warm using USB heat generated from the computer will allow us to keep the thermostat turned down in chilly weather.

2 - USB heat is energy-efficient. Using the computer to generate heat is an efficient use of the computer's resources.

3- Infrared heat is healthy. Infrared heat penetrates deeply through the skin's layers to the muscle tissue. It is a deep healing source of heat. Research indicates 20-30 minutes of infrared heat therapy daily improves circulation and produces positive results.

4 - Reducing the onset of hand injury. An USB heated, warm computer mouse produces relief and helps offset the side-effects of medical conditions related to cold hands like muscular and joint hand pain, stiffness, stress, tension, carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis hand pain, poor circulation, Raynaud's cold hands and diabetes poor circulation.

5 - Occupational & Hand Therapy. Hand Therapists report an increase of hand injuries due to the increased amount of computer use. The importance of ergonomics is at an all-time high. The use of healthy computer gadgets will assist in creating a productive and healing work environment. The infrared heated computer mouse assists a worker's rehabilitation after hand injury during and ongoing throughout the rehabilitative, healing process.

6 - All year use. A warm mouse is used during the winter months when temperatures drop, and it's used during the summer months when the air-conditioning creates a cold work area. Everyday is a good day for an infrared heat therapy hand treatment.

7 - Warmth and heat is soothing when your hands hurt. Painful hands are not uncommon for computer users. Fingers, thumbs, palms and wrists ache, and these aches & pains come and go depending upon our actvities and the amount of time we sit and work at the computer. A warm computer mouse helps relieve the pain by increasing blood flow, expanding blood vessels and increaseing blood circulation.

8 - Weather predicts our body's reaction to cold. When it's cold outside our body reacts with chills and an uncomfortable feeling. When we sit still at the computer, the chills seem to magnify. Warmth from a heated mouse can help eleviate the chills by delivering a steady flow of infrared heat rays to our hand and body.

9 - Heat therapy is one way to treat arthritic joint pain. A little arthritis is found in many of us. It gets more noticeable as we age. The warming infrared heat generated by an USB heated mouse penetrates deeply through skin layers into the muscles and joints. The warming mouse can actually help loosen and prevent joint stiffness.

10 - Humans pick up toxic by-products in the food we eat and the air we breathe. We also pick up toxins in medications and by handling certain materials. The toxins accumulate in our blood and go undetected until we become ill. Infrared heat helps to remove these toxins from our blood by inhibiting bacterial growth from these toxic substances.

Copycat Counterfeit Fake Cold Mouse Hand Warmer on eHow.com

cold mouse hand, mouse hand warmer, IGMproducts.comThe Authentic Mouse Hand Warmer shown above was designed to keep an exposed, cold mouse hand covered.


A fake Mouse Hand Warmer was spotted recently on eHow.com.


eHow copied IGMproducts' Mouse Hand Warmer which is designed to address the cold mouse hand problem. IGMproducts.com sells the authentic, original, Mouse Hand Warmer blanket pouch. It is designed to use with ValueRays infrared heated computer mouse and ValueRays infrared heated mouse pad. Together the three items create a perfect mouse hand environment.

We stumbled upon an article written by an eHow member who copied the IGMproducts' cold mouse hand blanket pouch. IGMproducts.com is somewhat honored to say the least.


"We aren't Prada, Gucci, Fendi or Louis Vuitton," said Anna Miller, IGMproducts.com Webmaster, "but now we can say there's a counterfeit Mouse Hand Warmer, and it's somewhat flattering."

The authentic Mouse Hand Warmer is constructed of high quality blanket fleece and made in the USA by a Los Angeles design house. The photos on eHow illustrate a very poorly made Mouse Hand Warmer. The IGMproducts version is made well of high quality fabrics, and the workmanship is exceptional. The fleece blanket fabric is like crawling under the covers on a cold winter night.


Authorized resellers of the IGMproducts Mouse Hand Warmer are: Etsy.com, eBay.com, Amazon.com and MadeinTheUSAForever.com.

If you suffer from a cold mouse hand and want a blanket to keep your hand warm, please visit http://www.igmproducts.com/.

The ValueRays heated mouse and heated mouse pad are also available and can be purchased as a set to save money. Each item when used separately serve the cold mouse hand purpose, and when used together, the three items keep warmth and heat insulated inside the blanket pouch. Plus, the USB heated computer mouse and heated mouse pad are made with a carbon fiber which create infrared heat. Infrared heat is a source of healing heat. Research shows 20-30 minutes of infrared heat therapy daily will help reverse poor circulation, tension, muscle stress and hand strains.

Occupational Therapy - Infrared Heat Heals Computer Cold Mouse Hand Pain

Join the American Occupational Therapy Association's April 2009 celebration. Occupational Therapy Month month is right around the corner.


Occupational Therapy intervention is one of the most promising, results-oriented job-savers a person can experience within a lifetime. A healthy, healing intervention saves jobs, restores hope, a worker's self-confidence and self-esteem. This story is about the loss of hand movement, and the positive results of an OT intervention.

Losing the function of a hand can be devastating, especially when the hand is needed to work at the computer all day. Finding a new job is not easy and almost impossible in today's economic situation. Rehabilitating an injury is a lot of work. Of the two choices, we choose rehabilitation. The alternative of not holding a job isn't an option.

The loss of the use of a person's computer mouse hand due to arthritis and poor circulation can make everyday computer tasks painful and dreadful. The pain from a sick computer mouse hand causes the hand to cramp, freeze and fingers become numb. Pills aren't always the solution and aren't an attractive idea. The only relief is not working, and it is not a suggested option.

Most occupational interventions rely upon ingenuity and creativity. For our computer mouse hand injury, we relied upon a mouse hand warmer blanket pouch to hold the computer mouse and mouse pad. The blanket is made of fleece and covers the computer user's hand completely creating a warm house for the mouse and mouse pad. We inserted inside the mouse hand warmer blanket pouch an USB heated mouse and USB heated mouse pad to generate heat inside the blanket pouch housing.

The USB heated devices are designed with a carbon fiber. Carbon fiber generates infrared heat. Infrared heat is healing. The sun is an example of the natural source of infrared heat. The Eastern Medical profession has been using the healing effects of infrared heat for thousands of centuries. The Western world is starting to catch on to the healing effects of infrared heat through infrared saunas and now occupational computer devices.

It is documented proof by therapists and physicians worldwide, 20-30 minutes per day of infrared heat has healing effects on an injury, in this case, of the hand. I conducted a 4 week study using a mouse hand warmer blanket, an infrared heated mouse and infrared heated mouse pad with a person who suffers with arthritis and poor circulation of the computer mouse hand. After three weeks of 30 minutes of daily use, the right hand is healed. There's no cold, cramp, pain or discomfort in the person's right mouse hand.

The use of the hand for computer related work is not going to fade or go away soon. As a matter of fact, the occupational related hand injuries will increase based on the continued widespread computer use activity. The first computer mouse turned 40 years old in 2008, and introducing the healing effects of infrared heated computer mouse and mouse pad is being made in 2009. We've come a long way, and we have a long road ahead.

RAYNAUD'S DISEASE - Cold Hands, Cold Fingers, Cold Extremities


Cold Mouse Hand? Crawl Under the Mouse Hand Warmer Covers

by: devika
from
e-healtharticles.com

Raynaud's disease is a circulatory condition that affects blood supply to the skin and peripheries and causes the extremities of the body to lose feeling and become numb.

Raynaud's Disease is most commonly associated with cold temperatures and stress and sufferers of this condition will find their toes and fingers feel very cold or may even lose sensation in response to a stressful situation or exposure to cold. During a Raynaud's attack, the arteries and blood capillaries narrow, reducing blood circulation to affected areas, usually the extremities such as toes, fingers, ears and the tip of your nose.

This reduced peripheral blood flow is a normal protective mechanism to prevent excessive heat loss from these areas and preserve the body's core temperature. Similarly, in times of stress the body goes into a 'flight or fight' response which causes the blood flow to the fingers and toes to be significantly reduced so that blood is conserved for the vital organs and muscles.

In people with Raynaud's syndrome these responses are exaggerated causing troublesome symptoms at inappropriate times. The reduced blood flow leaves the extremities looking pale or even blue and cold as no warm blood reaches these areas.

Diagnosing Raynaud's Disease:

There are no blood tests that can specifically diagnose Raynaud's syndrome , but generally health care practitioners will make a diagnosis based on the description of your symptoms. Your doctor may examine you and order further tests to rule out other conditions and diseases of the arteries, and to determine if there is a possible underlying condition that is causing Raynaud's.

In some cases your practitioner may ask you to place your hand in cold water to bring on an episode of Raynaud's in order to make a more accurate diagnosis.

Though its causes are not completely understood, Raynaud's seems to be caused by an overreaction of blood vessels in the extremities to temperature and stress. In normal physiology, when a person's body is exposed to cold, the blood vessels in the extremities become narrowed and slow down blood supply to the fingers and toes. In the case of an individual with Raynuad?s these blood vessels narrow dramatically, causing troubling symptoms.

There are two types of Raynaud's Disease,it can develop as a complication of an underlying disorder (Secondary Raynaud's) or it can develop independently in the absence of any other underlying health conditions (Primary Raynauds).

As Raynaud's Disease is related to poor circulation, the most successful treatment methods are those that provide long-term assistance with circulation problems. Herbal and homeopathic remedies specific to the condition and containing ingredients such as Rosemary, Ginger, and Ginkgo biloba can do just this in a natural manner.Used regularly, these work to effectively restore the function of the circulatory system; improving blood flow to the extremities while helping to prevent tissue damage. These herbal ingredients also address the underlying triggers of Raynaud?s by reducing inflammation and stress levels while working to guard against cold fingers and toes.

Prevention:

Raynaud's Disease is a condition that you have to learn to manage and adapt to. While this may be difficult at times, there are a number of ways to prevent and cope with attacks.

1.Dress warmly outdoors and avoid getting cold. Winter is often a difficult time for those with Raynaud?s so it is essential to cover up with hats, gloves, thick socks and ear muffs in cold weather.

2.Consider moving to a milder climate. While relocation may seem like a huge preventative measure, it is definitely something worth considering if you live in an area with extremely cold winters.

3.Exercise regularly! Keeping fit with a regular exercise routine will encourage circulation and reduce the chances of Raynaud?s attacks.

4.Don't smoke and avoid secondary smoke. The nicotine in cigarettes causes the blood vessels to constrict resulting in a drop in body temperature in the extremities. This can induce an attack so if you are a smoker, try to stop smoking naturally.

5.Manage your stress levels. Stress is a common trigger of Raynaud's so find ways to recognize and better manage your stress. Avoid those situations that tend to stress you and adopt stress relieving techniques such as yoga, meditation or deep breathing exercises.

6.Look after your hands and feet. Avoid wearing things that may constrict blood flow to these extremities such as tight rings, tight socks or wrist bands.

Cold Hands (Warm Heart)


by Darlene in London

I am freezing. It seems Mr. Mak has made some type of mistake with the heaters. He was supposed to add hours, not take them away. This kind of neglect is just cruel... especially on snowy days when I'm actually feeling good about doing school work. I wish I had a space heater. Better yet, I wish I had a fireplace!

I've spent the last few hours trying to write and re-write cover letters to send with my CV for internships. But it's hard to concentrate when your hands are too cold to type without shivering. Brrrrrr. I've resorted to making a hot cup of tea every 30 minutes so I can keep the juices flowing.

So here I am, in my room, frozen to the core - despite the thermals, sweats, socks and fuggs. I think I might have to call it an early night, just so I can wrap myself in blankets. I swear it's like 40 degrees in here.

Common Methods of Preventing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Cold Hands? Carpal Tunnel diagnosis? Keep your hands warm using a warm mouse and warm mouse pad. Both are available at IGMproducts.com
by: Jeff P. Anliker, LMT & Staff
from
e-healtharticles.com

Carpal tunnel syndrome is an increasingly common and painful affliction that harms millions of workers world wide every year. Carpal tunnel syndrome is an affliction that occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm into the hand, becomes impinged at the wrist junction. The carpal tunnel is a narrow area consisting of the transverse carpal ligament and the carpal bones located at the base of the hand. This is the area where the median nerve can become impinged, hence the reason it is called carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel syndrome will cause pain, weakness, paresthesia (pins and needles) and numbness in the hand and wrist, along with increased weakness and decreased strength. The best way to deal with carpal tunnel syndrome is to take the steps to prevent it.

The first most important step in prevention is knowledge. Carpal tunnel syndrome most often affects workers who have jobs that require constant static or repeated movements, such as factory work, grocers, or computer workers. Carpal tunnel syndrome is not relegated just to these occupations, but it is much more common. It is the consistent static motion such as gripping a steering wheel, holding a book and/or repeated motions performed over and over that cause this disorder. Due to musculature development and wrist size, women are almost three times more likely than men to develop carpal tunnel syndrome than men. The worst profession for carpal tunnel syndrome is not data entry and other computer jobs, but it is actually assemblers in a factory. Recent studies estimate that approximately three of every 10,000 workers lost considerable time from work because of carpal tunnel syndrome. Those restricted to light duty is much higher.

Catching the problem early is extremely important. The earlier the disorder can be recognized and addressed, the better. A physical of the hands, arms, shoulders, and neck can help determine if a worker's pains are in any way related to daily activities or to any type of disorder. The wrist should be examined for discoloration, swelling, tenderness, or warmth. Each finger should be tested for sensation, and the muscles at the base of the hand should be examined. The best way to decrease onset of injury in the workplace is for workers to do conditioning. Workers can take a short amount of time to perform stretching and exercises to maintain muscle balance, take frequent rest breaks, and use correct posture and wrist position. Maintaining proper wrist position is essential. In a factory setting, jobs can be rotated among workers.

Some great tips to follow at work:

Avoid activities requiring excessive up-and-down and side-to-side movements of the wrist. These are the repetitive motions most likely to cause carpal tunnel syndrome. Position your hands properly while working. Wrists should always be parallel and elbows should make a 90-degree angle to your work surface.

Situation permitting, take frequent breaks to stand, walk, stretch and exercise the entire upper extremity to maintain balance of the muscles, thereby reducing impingement of the associated joints.

Avoid direct pressure on the heel of the hand. This puts pressure on the wrist.

If working with a keyboard, use correct posture, holding your hand above the keyboard in order to help keep your wrists in an appropriate position.

Following these tips is a great way to help prevent carpal tunnel syndrome. However if you do have an early mild case of carpal tunnel, there are still ways to minimize the damage and prevent it from getting worse, even while keeping the same job. It is important for the worker to take all necessary precautions as soon as he/she believes there might be any damage. Once you are sure that you have early stages of carpal tunnel, be sure to pay attention to the following tips.

At work:

Take more frequent breaks from the pain-causing movement.
Perform active and passive stretches
Perform exercises to correct muscle imbalances in the hand and forearm.
Keep your keyboard level at your desk, and be sure to take advantage of any wrist friendly keyboards or other equipment that might be in the office. Some larger companies offer ergonomic consultation for their employees; if it is available, make use of it.

At home:

Perform correct exercises and stretches.
Use cold therapy on the wrist. (Acute Phase)
Have someone massage your neck, back, shoulders, forearms and hands to relieve tension in the forearm and wrist.
Wear splints at night. (Nighttime only) Most doctors will recommend a forearm brace, a narrow cuff worn just below the elbow that reduces fluid content in the carpal tunnel. (Daytime use will increase muscle imbalance and severity of symptoms.)
Minimize static flexion and repetitive hand movements when possible.
Switch up tasks to reduce strain.
Take breaks at least once an hour, to rest, shake your hands and loosen everything up. (It is best to take a brief rest break every 30-45 minutes.)

General lifestyle tips:

Keep hands warm. Warmth can help increase circulation, which will help ease the swelling and pain.
Keep active! Get regular aerobic exercise such as walking or swimming.
Do your best to cut caffeine intake and smoking, both of which reduce blood flow and therefore worsen the situation.
And most important, there are many muscle balancing exercises that doctors and therapists recommend that help restore stability in the joint and reduce impingement, thereby alleviating the pain and also stabilizing the carpal tunnel.
Ask your doctor about these exercises and what the actual benefits are for full results.

Follow these guidelines and you will be able to lead a healthier lifestyle, free of the pain and anguish that can be caused by carpal tunnel syndrome.

Computer Mouse: Heat for Arthritis Cold Hand Pain

If you suffer from arthritis, here's information about the illness and ways to help relieve the pain. Arthritis may produce poor circulation in your hands. If you work at a computer and your mouse hand gets cold, it's wise to use a heated warm mouse. A USB connected heated warming mouse generates dry heat like a heating pad. This will promote better circulation to your cold mouse hand. The heat from the heated warming mouse will also loosen muscles and improve movement. Heat to the mouse hand is relaxing, soothing, relieves stress and tension. It's a healthy alternative from the pain a cold mouse hand can create.


Heat relaxes the muscles and stimulates blood circulation. Dry heat, such as heat lamps, a warm mouse or heating pads, and moist heat, such as a heated washcloth, or a warm bath are good options for heat treatments.

How Is Arthritis Pain Treated?

There is no single treatment that applies to all people with arthritis, but rather the doctor will develop a management plan designed to minimize your specific pain and improve the function of your joints. A number of treatments can provide short-term pain relief.

Short-Term Relief

Medications—Because people with osteoarthritis have very little inflammation, pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol*) may be effective. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis generally have pain caused by inflammation and often benefit from aspirin or other nonsteroidal anti- inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen (Motrin or Advil).

Heat and cold—The decision to use either heat or cold for arthritis pain depends on the type of arthritis and should be discussed with your doctor or physical therapist. Moist heat, such as a warm bath or shower, or dry heat, such as a heating pad (or USB heated warm mouse), placed on the painful area of the joint for about 15 minutes may relieve the pain. An ice pack (or a bag of frozen vegetables) wrapped in a towel and placed on the sore area for about 15 minutes may help to reduce swelling and stop the pain. If you have poor circulation, do not use cold packs.

Joint Protection—Using a splint or a brace to allow joints to rest and protect them from injury can be helpful. Your physician or physical therapist can make recommendations.

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS)—A small TENS device that directs mild electric pulses to nerve endings that lie beneath the skin in the painful area may relieve some arthritis pain. TENS seems to work by blocking pain messages to the brain and by modifying pain perception.

Massage—In this pain-relief approach, a massage therapist will lightly stroke and/or knead the painful muscle. This may increase blood flow and bring warmth to a stressed area. However, arthritis-stressed joints are very sensitive so the therapist must be very familiar with the problems of the disease.

Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are chronic diseases that may last a lifetime. Learning how to manage your pain over the long term is an important factor in controlling the disease and maintaining a good quality of life. Following are some sources of long- term pain relief.

Long-Term Relief

Medications

Biological response modifiers— These new drugs used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis reduce inflammation in the joints by blocking the reaction of a substance called tumor necrosis factor, an immune system protein involved in immune response system. These drugs include Enbrel and Remicade.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)—These are a class of drugs including aspirin and ibuprofen that are used to reduce pain and inflammation and may be used for both short-term and long-term relief in people with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. NSAIDs also include Celebrex and Vioxx, so-called COX-2 inhibitors that block and enzyme known to cause an inflammatory response.

Disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs)—These are drugs used to treat people with rheumatoid arthritis who have not responded to NSAIDs. Some of these include the new drug Arava and methotrexate, hydroxychloroquine, penicillamine, and gold injections. These drugs are thought to influence and correct abnormalities of the immune system responsible for a disease like rheumatoid arthritis. Treatment with these medications requires careful monitoring by the physician to avoid side effects.

Corticosteroids—These are hormones that are very effective in treating arthritis but cause many side effects. Corticosteroids can be taken by mouth or given by injection. Prednisone is the corticosteroid most often given by mouth to reduce the inflammation of rheumatoid arthritis. In both rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, the doctor also may inject a corticosteroid into the affected joint to stop pain. Because frequent injections may cause damage to the cartilage, they should only be done once or twice a year.

Other Products— Hyaluronic acid products like Hyalgan and Synvisc mimic a naturally occurring body substance that lubricates the knee joint and permits flexible joint movement without pain. A blood filtering device called the Prosorba Column is used in some health care facilities for filtering out harmful antibodies in people with severe rheumatoid arthritis.

Weight reduction—Excess pounds put extra stress on weight-bearing joints such as the knees or hips. Studies have shown that overweight women who lost an average of 11 pounds substantially reduced the development of osteoarthritis in their knees. In addition, if osteoarthritis has already affected one knee, weight reduction will reduce the chance of it occurring in the other knee.

Exercise—Swimming, walking, low-impact aerobic exercise, and range-of- motion exercises may reduce joint pain and stiffness. In addition, stretching exercises are helpful. A physical therapist can help plan an exercise program that will give you the most benefit. (The National Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Information Clearinghouse has a separate fact sheet on arthritis and exercise. See the end of this booklet for contact information.)

Surgery—In select patients with arthritis, surgery may be necessary. The surgeon may perform an operation to remove the synovium (synovectomy), realign the joint (osteotomy), or in advanced cases replace the damaged joint with an artificial one (arthroplasty). Total joint replacement has provided not only dramatic relief from pain but also improvement in motion for many people with arthritis.

What Alternative Therapies May Relieve Arthritis Pain?

Many people seek other ways of treating their disease, such as special diets or supplements. Although these methods may not be harmful in and of themselves, no research to date shows that they help. Some people have tried acupuncture, in which thin needles are inserted at specific points in the body. Others have tried glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate, two natural substances found in and around cartilage cells, for osteoarthritis of the knee.

Some alternative or complementary approaches may help you to cope or reduce some of the stress of living with a chronic illness. If the doctor feels the approach has value and will not harm you, it can be incorporated into your treatment plan. However, it is important not to neglect your regular health care or treatment of serious symptoms.

How Can You Cope With Arthritis Pain?

The long-term goal of pain management is to help you cope with a chronic, often disabling disease. You may be caught in a cycle of pain, depression, and stress. To break out of this cycle, you need to be an active participant with the doctor and other health care professionals in managing your pain. This may include physical therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, occupational therapy, biofeedback, relaxation techniques (for example, deep breathing and meditation), and family counseling therapy.

The Multipurpose Arthritis and Musculoskeletal Diseases Center at Stanford University, supported by the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), has developed an Arthritis Self-Help Course that teaches people with arthritis how to take a more active part in their arthritis care. The Arthritis Self-Help Course is taught by the Arthritis Foundation and consists of a 12- to 15-hour program that includes lectures on osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, exercise, pain management, nutrition, medication, doctor-patient relationships, and nontraditional treatment.

You may want to contact some of the organizations listed at the end of this fact sheet for additional information on the Arthritis Self-Help Course and on coping with pain, as well as for information on support groups in your area.

Things You Can Do To Manage Arthritis Pain

Eat a healthy diet
Get 8 to 10 hours of sleep at night.
Keep a daily diary of pain and mood changes to share with your physician.
Choose a caring physician.
Join a support group
Stay informed about new research on managing arthritis pain.

Geek computer gadgets fix nerd cold hand problem fast


Geek computer gadgets fix a computer nerd's cold mouse hand problem fast!

by Anna Miller


You don’t have to be a NASA Rocket Scientist nerd or Disney Computer Artist geek to experience cold hands working at your computer. Sitting for long hours using a computer mouse can cause your mouse hand to get extremely cold, even if you are a simple stay-at-home or office-junkie computer nerd.


Many heavy computer user “nerds” suffer with a cold mouse hand as soon as the temperatures drop in their work space. It doesn’t matter if it’s winter or summer, if the work space is cold or drafty, a computer user’s mouse hand can become extremely cold. The most common occurrence of a cold mouse hand is by people who sit for long hours at the computer. If a person uses the computer occasionally, or if they are naturally hot-blooded, they may not experience a cold mouse hand. It all depends upon the person, their work space conditions, and their medical history.


Several online forums have surveyed their members about the cold mouse hand problem. The majority of responses indicate the cold mouse hand problem is fairly common with the exception being laptop users who do not use a computer mouse when computing.


There’s no specific medical condition for a cold mouse hand, but there are medical conditions with cold hand symptoms. The most common of the cold hand medical condition is “poor circulation.” Poor circulation is most commonly caused by a progressive blocking of the arteries. Factors for developing poor circulation include a lack of physical activity, smoking, high blood pressure and high cholesterol.


The cold mouse hand problem can become very annoying because the longer a person sits and works at the computer, the colder the hand gets making the tips of the fingers and top of the hand numb. There are products on the market to address the cold mouse hand problem which include both USB connected devices and earth-friendly devices requiring no electricity. Depending upon which device you want to use, it’s wise to address the cold hand problem to relieve discomfort as you work. The only other option is to stop working, and that’s not always possible when there are deadlines to meet and computer work to be completed.


The mouse hand warmer geek gadgets available include mouse hand warmer blankets, heated mouse pads, heated mice and mouse hand warmer mousepads. The mouse hand warmer computer gadgets range in price and cost little compared to the price you pay for not using them. Most of the computer geek gadgets to keep your mouse hand warm are available online. Do some online research prior to making a purchase to make sure the items you are buying fit your needs.


Gaining much popularity online is a product called the Mouse Hand Warmer ™. It’s a blanket for the mouse hand. It is shaped like a pouch and holds a person’s favorite mouse (optical or USB connected) and mouse pad, or it works as a covered mousepad with out the use of another mouse pad. It’s made of a cozy fleece blanket material which insulates body heat as a person works. There are no cords to get tangled on the desk top because the Mouse Hand Warmer uses no electricity. It’s earth friendly in today’s energy-efficient world. The Mouse Hand Warmer is available at many online stores, and not yet available at regular retail stores. So, if you are interested in the Mouse Hand Warmer search Google to find online locations or go to one of these websites and search for the Mouse Hand Warmer – Amazon.com, Etsy.com, Pronto.com, IGMproducts.com and MadeInUSAforever.com.


Other computer geek gadgets designed to address the cold mouse hand problem require electricity and are also available online. The warming mouse, available in several colors, shapes and sizes, is a geek gadget that heats up after it’s plugged in and stays warm until you turn it off. If you purchase an USB connected warming mouse, make sure it’s ergonomic enough for your mouse hand. If the ergonomic shape is not suited for your mouse hand, you will end up with a sore mouse hand -- especially if you tend to spend long hours using a computer mouse. Plus, the USB connected heated mouse requires the computer user to manually turn off the mouse when finished using it or the mouse will stay heated and using electricity after you log off and shut down the computer. There’s no heat regulator on the warming mouse, so get ready to have a very warm mousing experience. A person’s body temp is about 98.6 degrees and most of the warming mice heat up to 104 degrees Fahrenheit.


Another practical computer geek gadget designed specifically for the computer nerd’s cold mouse hand is the USB connected warming mouse pad. If you currently use a metal gaming mousepad, it can become very cold during the winter months when heat is a virtue. Even the most common forms of rubber mouse pads become chilled in a cold work area or office space. So, if you decide to get an USB connected warming mouse pad, make sure the mousepad you purchase fits on your work area and the cords don’t get tangled on your desk top. Many of the current USB connected mouse pads also incorporate an additional USB connection strip making them handy to plug in several computer gadgets. The one you choose, depends upon your likes and needs. Just be careful, there’s a lot of junk out there, so buy from a reputable seller who stands behind their products, offers return policies and gives a refund if you are not happy with the purchase.


If you suffer with a cold mouse hand and haven’t taken appropriate action to relieve the problem, hopefully you will now. To learn more about how to keep your cold mouse hand warm search Google, Yahoo! or MSN. There are several blogs dedicated to the cold mouse hand condition. Regardless of the action you take, knowing relief is available may help the next time your mouse hand gets cold.
