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

My biggest trick is just getting up from my desk at regular intervals - even if it is just to fill up water bottle. Naturally, that isn't shoulder specific but it helps me with lower back stiffness from sitting static for long periods at a time.

@farrar Yeah, I try to do that more often now as well. With lower back pain the single biggest thing that helped me was sitting on a gym ball instead of a desk chair. I still struggle with shoulders and neck, though.
