Re: numb/prickly mouse hand
mine doesn't get numb. it freezes. anytime i play poker for an hour or so, my fingers will be so cold, supposedly from the blood falling away from them? i dunno, but it sucks.

Re: numb/prickly mouse hand
but, I honesty think that the actual mouse causes this numbing/tingling effect. Because when I play for hours using my touch pad on my notebook, I don't get that feeling. I think it has something to do with the electronic configurations on the mouse and long exposure.

Re: numb/prickly mouse hand
My pinky often goes numb during long sessions, I just try to excercise it between hands as much as possible. I do think its probably the mouse design, I also have very large hands so this particular mouse might not suit me well.

anyone else suffer from this condition? obviously from too much poker. I've even gone as far as to buy a new mouse. It didnt help. [/ QUOTE ] I have a trackball and a v. good optical mouse. I rotate between them every week or so. This seems to help quite a bit. Also, not keeping my hand on the mouse when I don't need to click is very helpful. scrub

Re: numb/prickly mouse hand
Numbness in the pinky and ring finger could be a sign of a compressed cervical vertebra (C4). Probably not serious, but worth knowing about. Physical therapy and exercises that you can do yourself are available.
Your mileage may vary. Offer not available in all States. Close cover before striking.

I use a Logitech trackman wheel--it has solved all of my odd wrist feelings. I also have a logitech marble mouse (which is really a trackball)--it is OK, but the trackman is better. The trackman only costs 29.95 in the wired version, so you don't lose much if you don't like it.

[/ QUOTE ] this is exactly my problem - numbness in those two fingers of my mouse hand (but not my left). Are you saying this may be a back issue rather than a hand/arm issue? If so, why only the one hand? Thanks for any suggestion, been this way for a couple of weeks now and it's getting annoying.
