Tendonitis and R users
I think I've avoided tendonitis by carefully stretching the affected area
when I begin to feel discomfort and, as John suggests, "Carefully watch
posture and arm/hand actions to reduce strain".

I've come close a couple of times. Solutions: don't use computer-not always practical. Carefully watch posture and arm/hand actions to reduce strain. If do a lot of keyboarding not just R type look into using a Dvoark keyboard. Something I have not done but which is likely to help is consult your institutions health and safety people about solutions such as ergonomic keyboards etc. John Kane Kingston ON Canada
