๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ Recs needed: I have ulnar nerve compression on my dominant side, and it's at a point where using my (fancy ergonomic) mouse causes irritation and numbness on the outside of my hand. I've tried using my non-dominant hand but I can't work that way. Does anyone with this kind of pain have recs?

My ulnar nerve issue (shoveling, obvs different) took like 10 months of aggressive rest to heal. Compression garments at night also helped me keep general inflammation down but may not help your situation. I'm so scared of doing it again, I've altered so much behaviour I hope you find relief!!

Thank you! Shoveling is so awful, I get it. (That kicked off my bad pain.) I may try compression garments. I had OT/PT for most of last year into Feb and it helped, but keeping up with it is hard and expensive. With editing I keep re-irritating it as soon as I get a big project!
