To avoid wrist pressure:
- Keep forearms parallel with the top of your desk, ensuring your elbows are level.
- Allow yourself a regular break from using a keyboard and mouse.
- When working with a keyboard and mouse it is important that the arm is sufficiently supported by using a good armrest on the chair or a separate armrest. An armrest reduces muscle tension in the arm and shoulder and promotes comfort. A wrist support helps to keep the wrist straight during typing and can be used `to rest` for a moment during work.
