    Mouse-Hand Index Finger Pain

    The last few weeks my index finger on my right hand has been aching at the middle/big knuckle. When I try to curl both my hands into themselves (like making a fist) my left index finger goes a lot farther than my right one. How can I tell if it's arthritis or if the finger just needs to be popped?

    And on a side note, do any of you have a good 3-5 button gaming mouse that you swear by for alleviating joint pain?

    Sounds like you have repetitive strain injuries. It can be quite serious, can lead to nerve damage, permanent loss of function and such.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repetitive_strain_injury A decent starting point.

    I'd find a store that has their products out to test and get a feel for them, find one that fits your hand the best. There's also quite a few adjustable mice on the market, though I can't give any first-hand reviews. Anyways good luck.
