Computer use related upper limb musculoskeletal (ComRULM) disorders Zhiyong Ming, Nina Zaproudina  Pathophysiology  Volume 9, Issue 3, Pages 155-160 (May 2003) DOI: 10.1016/S0928-4680(03)00004-X

Fig. 1 Infrared thermograms of the hands of a lady who used computers more than 6 h per day with right forearm wrist and hand swelling and intensive pain. The temperatures measured indicate clearly higher values in the right arm. Pathophysiology 2003 9, 155-160DOI: (10.1016/S0928-4680(03)00004-X)

Fig. 2 At left: view of carpal tunnel structures, modified from Atlas of the Body: The Carpal Tunnel [15]. At right: if the median nerve is pressed at wrist, result is the paresthesia, numbness, tingling, or pain in the median nerve distribution area (and Digits 1–3 and partially also Digit 4). (1: Transverse carpal ligament; 2: Median nerve; 3: Tendon's sheaths; 4: Tendon; 5: Median nerve is very easily compressed at the wrist in computer users.) Pathophysiology 2003 9, 155-160DOI: (10.1016/S0928-4680(03)00004-X)
