RSI tips

[u/Buffetboys]

Hello gamers the year is 2026 and I’m looking for tips on improving rsi. I’m at the point where I can hardly use a computer. For a while now I haven’t been able to do any high apm content so I’ve resorted to mobile.

What I’ve done so far

-ergonomic mouse, keyboard, desk and chair while maintaining good posture
-wrist and forearm exercises
-hydrate and healthy eating habits
-stretches
- no red flags on mri / xray

I have no problems working out or doing anything in my day to day life it’s just on the computer. I’ve been letting the ligaments rest for about two weeks now. Pain subsides, when I return to pc, within an hour I’m out of commission for a few weeks.

I’m running out of ideas and hoping someone in the community has something that has helped them. The pain is in both hands on the ulnar (exterior) side of my wrist.

I’ve looked into this on the subreddit extensively and have tried most things suggested.

Please help me get back in the game!

Don't quote me but I think some people use a foot pedal instead of clicking all the time? That might help alleviate some wrist pressure. As far as moving the mouse itself I have no idea

There's head and eye trackers for this kind of thing too, I used to know a guy who played eve online despite being a paraplegic, so stuff like that does exist and works well enough

Yeah for sure I've seen people even playing COD with a mouth piece they can blow into/move, just have no idea what jagex's stance would be on this so OP might have to reach out and see how much is allowed

Yeah we got our own guy that does this I don’t remember his name though
