D What is RSI?
REPETITIVE STRAIN INJURY (RSI) 1. _____ Any person who repeats the same movement a lot of times can develop repetitive strain injury. Factory workers, computer operators, sports people, and musicians are at the most risk because their jobs involve making the same movement thousands of times. The symptoms of RSI include: pain and/or burning in the damaged area, difficulty in moving, and loss of feeling. 2. _____ It is difficult to cure RSI but you can avoid it before it starts. To prevent RSI, workers at risk should: - take regular breaks from their work to stretch and move about; - learn to sit and move correctly so they use their bodies naturally. 3. _____ People who use computers for a long time have a high risk of developing RSI. Here are some basic rules for working safely at a computer: - take regular breaks to stretch and relax, - move the screen to eye level or a little bit lower, - don’t hold the mouse for too long or too tightly, - sit with your back relaxed, shoulders down and your neck straight, - keep your wrists relaxed, your elbows at about 90 degrees and the lower parts of your arms parallel to the desk top, - use an adjustable chair, - keep your feet flat on the floor.
