Gel wrist rests

[SivakDrac]

I posted a while back asking about what I could do to help my wrist pains from computer use and was recommended one of these. So far it's a little strange, but seems better.

For those of you who might also use one: Did you elevate your keyboard any? And would you recommend getting one for the mouse too? I saw some pads with one on them, but I didn't have enough for both. The keyboard is the one I was mainly looking at. Got it in <font color="#0000F0">blue!</font>

So, any thoughts?

I use both the keyboard and mouse gel wrist rests at work....when you're on the computer 9hrs at work, it really does help. When i first started working, i didn't use them, and i actually got pains in both my wrists (which isn't too surprising after 15 years of ice hockey having broken both wrists more times than i can remember....without ever casting them...dumb) and I needed to take breaks after a few months. I haven't had any problems since i got them. I'd highly recommend the mouse rest too...you don't realize how much it really helps until you've gone without it, and then have one. ...and I'm all about the <font color='0000FF'>BLUE</FONT> too!

I use one for my KB at home, and at work, but for my mouse, I never use one. It seems useless to me.
