I have a very painful mouse-click injury.

P

A day of formatting figures for my thesis and I have injured my back. Every time I click the mouse button now, I get sharp pain in the middle of my back near my shoulder blade.

I can't believe I am even writing this post - that is an extra 8 mouse clicks...ouch! ouch! ouch! ouch! ouch! ouch! ouch! ouch!

Reminds me of a very old thread. If only DanB was here, he'd be flogging you his special DanB Accident Claim Squeeze-them-for-every-penny-they've-got Services.

It's one of those 'No Win, We Still Charge You' deals with fully qualified legal professionals (LLM Belford University) taking up your case.

Get well soon!

I'm ouching in sympathy for, try putting a hot water bottle or heated wheat bag on your back, hope you're feeling better and go easy on that clicking!

Ooooh, sounds like your desk hasn't been health-and-safety-assessed!

Not sure about Oz, but where I am they're so bloody scared of being sued that everything is assessed. There's even a ladder-climbing course you have to go on.

Hope your mouse injury is lots better. Some times I get a twitchy finger when I've been clicking too many times!

Rub on a load of tiger balm!

I love tiger balm. I gave some to my friend once and told her it was made of real tigers and she believed me

What is tiger balm?

It is the nectar of the Rangoon, a miracle cure for everything......

Thanks everyone. Ah, tiger balm. It is a little jar of miracles, isn't it? Pleased to report it is much better this morning.

So much better I went hot air ballooning!
