Carpal Tunnel Due to Transcription Work
December 6th, 2009 by admin
I’ve been doing medical transcription for the past twenty years. I absolutely love this line of work. It pays well, it has great benefits, and it puts my typing skills to use. The downside, though, is that I found out at the doctor’s office today that I have carpal tunnel syndrome. I’d been wondering why my hands and wrists hurt so much when I spent long hours working. The doctor suggested that I get a carpal tunnel brace to help support my wrists while I work. It seems like they would just get in the way, but I will do what I must.
