+Dr Levi Harrison #6 was actually surprisingly effective!

For those who want it in their notes: Stretches: at least every 2-3 hours for a few minutes - full fist - open your hand wide - table top fist - claw fist - half fist - full fist - Stretch each finger back - blocking exercises especially for thumb - pull back, pull forward (2x), across palm, piano, reverse piano, full fist, open fist - hands wide, open - close, open - close - stretch arm out with: wrist down, wrist up, around the world, back around the world, elbow in, elbow out - shake out your hands and fingers for 1 minute every 2 -3 hours Inertial exercises: at least every 2-3 hours for a few minutes - arm straight out, elbows straight: bring hand straight up like palm is against the wall - take other hand and bring fingers back (30 secs) - then hold your palm and bring your hand back (30 secs) - flex hand down and gently bring wrists down (30 secs) - ^^ this helps with front forecarms General tips: - Take a 5 minute break every 55 minutes - Take time 1-2x a day to run your hands under warm water and move your fingers up and down - massage your hand and fingers

I just want to thank you for having a positive, validating approach to this stuff. Idk if you're a gamer yourself, you certainly know the lingo. Where I'm from this hobby is looked down upon and it means a lot to people like me to see that medical professionals care about us.

reference for me 1:15 hands under warm water, move fingers up and down for five minutes 1:30 exercises: full fist, open hand wide, tabletop, claw fist, half fist, full fist 2:03 stretch your fingers out: stretch each finger back, then do blocking exercises: back, forward, back, forward, across, piano, reverse piano, full fist, open fist, hands wide open, close, open, close. Arm out: wrist down, wrist up, around the world, back around the world, elbow in, elbow out. 3:00 shake out your hands, shake out your fingers. 3:24 arm straight out, elbow straight, bring hand straight up as if against a wall with fingers two ways: fingers back with other hand, and hand back with other hand. hold each for approx. 30s. gently bring wrist down and hold with other hand. 4:27 massage hand with other hand. each joint. minute each hand total. make a fist, shake out wrist, around the world, back around the world, exercises.

ESPECIALLY the warm water. trust me it works. get some hot water and just stretch your wrist and hand in it. it relieves all the pain and stress instantly, your hands will feel amazing. if you feel any symptoms of wrist/hand pains take care of it ASAP. you dont want to not be able to game due to pain and stiffness and be stuck in a brace its not fun but im happy to be back.

As a gamer I have to say thank you for these tips. a few years ago I also had an accident at work where I cut my hand severely, this has helped a lot with the stiffness I get around my index finger. But, besides hand and wrist exercises what are things I should do for extensive sitting? I've been around other youtube channels and practiced other methods like certain yoga poses during my gaming breaks, but since you are a medical professional I thought I'd ask if you have any proper techniques to keep myself limber.

@Drleviharrison

Hi Shey, Aside from these stretches and exercises, we recently shot another video about how to stay limber and fit in an office/long term sitting environment. It is important to take frequent, 5 minute breaks every hour to simply stand, walk around or just move your limbs. Be sure to be well hydrated during any gaming session also. Good luck and stay tuned for that other video!

Thank you doc! Saving my life rn with these videos

I still use these exercises every day. When it comes to your wrist you can only maintain its state, not improve it. Many esport players have said they constantly experience wrist pain in daily life, not just in professional environments (G2-Pengu, Beaulo, Asmongold) and wish they had taken the steps earlier to help their longevity and quality of life in gaming. This can benefit all types of gamers and pc users, and only takes a small bit of time before playing. Hopefully this comment helps put some perspective and at the end of the day, we want to be here for both a good time and a long time!

And the immature comments are probably why nobody caters to us an a demographic.. anyway, thanks Dr. We need more people like you.
