I had some bad shoulder pain this morning, my shoulder has been suffering a bit in the past few weeks. I think this has been caused by how I use my computers and the position I sit in. I've tried to shift my position to help with this.

I should find a shoulder exercise program that would build up some muscle as well.

Do you have any tips for easing shoulder pain for those who work on computers a lot?

@turumore I think of this as "Mouse Shoulder" Last time it happened to me, the only real cure was daily brisk walking on uneven ground for an hour or two. A short blast of a couple of days of an anti-inflammatory Ibuprofen did help but you shouldn't do that for more than a day or two.

A new mouse might force a change of position. Some people swear by trackballs as an alternative.

@jbond Thanks for this! I think you're absolutely right, a "mouse hand" or a "mouse shoulder" is definitely something I can identify as the cause for this. I think I need more variation for my work station and take it from there.
