Repetitive Strain Injuries

Sat Sep 12, 2009, 11:38 PM
Has anyone out there had an RSI? If it was successfully overcome, what methods did you use to fix it, and over what time period.

I am particularly interested in the coping strategies used by professionals, who cant always afford to stop drawing for long periods of time.

My specific problem involved pain around the base of the thumb, on the back of the hands, and sometimes the wrist. It has persisted for several months. I am seeing surgeons and doctors regularly.

This is the primary reason for me not currently updating this website.

I really think your image [link] is fantastic and would really appreciate it if I could use it on my website briefly until I find an artist to your calibre that can create something unique for me. Obviously credits will be highlighted and the picture will remain in your ownership totally. I hope youll allow me this, just on as a short term solution to my art needs.
Thank you

We laugh at souls trapped in hell just as we laugh at old people- most of us will get there, sooner or later, but we like to forget that.
