    MOBA Games and hand pain

    So basically this ever since i started playing hots yesterday since i got an alpha invite, i've had this really serious hand pain in the lower part of my thumb.

    Now i dunno if this is something that i should care about or its something that will just go away as i play more click to move games but this can't really be a thing unless i have to change the sensetivity on my mouse or something?

    Have been playing wow for around 7 years and never have a problem with that or any other game like tf2 or hs etc.
    Played lol before 3 years back with no hand pain

    So anyone know what might be causing this

    Currently thinking of uninstalling heroes of the storm cause i don't want to risk my health but the game is so fun i don't really want to..

    Its really not a big problem if you follow guidelines.

    As all Serious Sports - Gaming for long hours requires preparing for the period with exercises to not damage your nerves and body parts.
    here i a guide showing wrist exercises you can do before gaming http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiRC80FJbHU

    1.Get comfortable gear - Keyboard Mouse with Ergonomic supports.
    2.Sit in a comfortable ergonomic chair using guidelines (will reduce back pain alot) - http://www.wikihow.com/Sit-at-a-Computer
    3.Give 5-10 Minute Brakes Between Sessions - Toilet - Walking - Hydrating.

    If you follow these steps there wont be any serious problems.

    Razor Naga is seriously the best RPG/MOBA/MMO gaming mouse ever made.

    Ergonomic as fuck and buttons a-go-go. Your left hand does almost nothing.

    I had such pain after I changed my mouse to a completely different model, and it went away completely within a week. I guess its just because you start to use muscles that werent used before.

    I'd like to counter this with the Logitech G600. Just as good as (if not better than) the Naga and not made by Razer, a company with literally 0 CS.

    I mean, that's my preference, but after going through 3 Nagas in 18 months (and having Razer not say a word to me despite the multiple emails) and still on the same G600 since it launched a few years ago, I think I know my clear winner.
    Still wondering why I play this game.
    I'm a Rogue and I also made a spreadsheet for the Order Hall that is updated for BfA.
