vertical mouse
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Consider adding a vertical mouse, to avoid torquing the wrist
- the biggest change that had the most impact, at the most reasonable cost, was a vertical mouse. I spent 6 months in PT because I had finally overdone my forearm from 35 years of 8+ hours a day desk work. And the BEST thing I did was that...
- I'm not a professional, I would suggest to get a vertical mouse, it solved my issues with hand tension.
- I don’t know if it works for gaming but a good vertical mouse has helped me a lot. It’s hard to get used to at first.
- Just get rid of them, get a vertical mouse or try to learn to play the keyboard like it’s a piano
Cons
- Also disliked the vertical mouse, but maybe more so because I’m size XS.
- While the image may be incorrect, I personally switch between a vertical mouse and regular for gaming and productivity, and the vertical mouse definitely feels easier to hold.
- I have noticed that since I started using the vertical mouse, the tingling in the right pinky finger has mostly gone down a little - I didn't expect it to disappear right away, but I more frequently have elbow and triceps discomfort.
- Considering vertical mouse as helathy is a wrong assumption. Those devices are not that great as advertised. At least not always.
- I tried a vertical mouse before the trackball and found I had to grip it too much because it kept wanting to push away from me otherwise.
