HEALTH WARNING
Use of a keyboard, mouse, or trackball may be linked to serious injuries or
disorders. Recent medical research of occupational Injuries has linked normal,
seemingly harmless activities as a potential cause of Repetitive Stress
Injuries (“RSI”). Many factors may be linked to the occurrence of RSl,
including a person’s own medical and physical condition, overall health, and
how a person positions and uses his or her body during work and other
activities (including use of a keyboard, mouse, or trackball). Some studies
suggest that the amount of time a person uses a keyboard, mouse, or trackball
may also be a factor. Consult a qualified health professional for any
questions or concerns you may have about these risk factors. When using a
keyboard, mouse, or trackball, you may experience occasionaldiscomfort in your
hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. However, if you
experience symptoms such as persistent or recurring discomfort, pain,
throbbing, aching, tingling, numbness, burning sensation, or stiffness, even
if such symptoms occur while you are not working at your computer. DO NOT
IGNORE THESE WARNING SIGNS. PROMPTLY SEE A QUALIFIED HEALTH PROFESSIONAL.
These symptoms can be signs of sometimes permanently disabling RSI disorders
of the nerves, muscles, tendons, or other parts of the body.
