Since I’ve moved out here to California and started working at EA, I’ve found that I have developed a much more severe case of computer elbow. I wonder if other people who spend most of their day in front of a computer experience this as well, or if I somehow sit and rest my elbows in a particular way.<\/p>\n
I know that some of my co-workers have computer elbow. It’s a combination of a dryness of the skin at the elbow and a slight soreness at the elbow near the end of the day. There’s no actual pain and I’m fairly certain that I’m not doing any permanent damage to any of my muscles, but there are definitely days where I feel worse computer elbow at the end of the day than others, and they’re usually the days I spend longer hours sitting in front of that infernal machine that rules our lives nowadays.<\/p>\n
Do other people get computer elbow? It may have to do with sitting at a flat surface and resting your elbows on it for extended periods of time, so marathon letter writers may also get it, making it less computer<\/i> elbow and more like desk elbow.<\/p>\n
