Comment on Ask HN: Posture – what do you do during work to avoid back pain?

Comments

What helped me most was to get an ergonomic chair and an external monitor/keyboard/mouse. To avoid wrist pain, I recommend a split keyboard [1], a vertical mouse [2] and an alternative keyboard layout [3].

stretching your wrists and forearms (their inner sides) can also be a good help in fighting this kind of pain (speaking from experience)

Yes. And Thera-Band exercises.
