Help! I have no idea what's wrong!

[classof2012]

Hey! My hand muscle between forefinger and thumb, lower back, knee and shoulder/lower neck all have been causing me pain on my right hand side for some time. What do you suspect?

My parents say I should exercise more, but no aches I've had have lasted this duration at this intensity.

Thanks in advance.

Possibly sitting at a computer for long periods of time without ergonomic equipment...chair, lower keyboard, body position, keyboard shape, wrist rest for keyboard and mouse, mouse, etc...

You should see either a sports doctor or if you have one....a reputable chiropractor.

I don't know what type of job you do...but that could have as well a huge part in what's going on.

Were you recently in an accident...or have you had this problem before?

Sounds like impingement. Exercise can help, but you need to do the right exercise, or you could do more damage or cause yourself more pain.

Yes, I do sit at the computer for quite a while, so maybe that is a part of the hand injury. I work on the checkouts at Woolworths, long periods of standing..... So would that have anything to do with it?

I haven't been in an accident either.

I've been taking about 4 paracetamol a day for a week now.. is that bad for my body?
