'New disease' caused by Computer

typing
As we learn to live in this dynamic and mechanised world, we are unknowingly creating adverse situations which are badly impacting our health. Although we can't slow down our technological progress, we can take some necessary measures to maintain our physical and mental health.

Excessive use of mobile phones and computer keyboards gives rise to a new disease named 'Carpal Tunnel Syndrome' (CTS). Frequent stretching of nerves and injuries on the neck, waist, fingers and wrists may result in CTS.

Today's youth can't survive without mobile phones and computers. Gaming, texting and surfing the web has become an integral part of our lives. But we should take all necessary measures to prevent our fingers and wrists from permanent damage.

One should take the following preventive measures while working on a computer:

1) Don't sit continously in front of the computer. Take a break after every 1-2 hours.

2) Rub your palms against each other. This will create acupressure and improve your blood circulation.

3) Close your eyes and try to perform some power meditation for rejuvenating your energy levels.
