Wrist pain? Those textfiles are relentless!

(+1)

Indeed dejaime, the textfiles are harming me

Wrist Update: unfortunately my wrist is in a bad shape, I went to the doctor and he said I have a pretty severe tendons inflammation due to the excessive use of the mouse. I'm completely resting the right arm right now and it's getting a little better each day.
I've bought a  cool drawing tablet with a screen and a vertical mouse that are coming this Wednesday! The plan is to use the vertical mouse (so I can draw something without irritating my arm) while I'm learning to use the drawing tablet that will completely replace the mouse for drawing!

Oh, sad (and glad) to read! I also had some tendon inflammation in the past (not severe by any means), and they can hurt. That turned me into a fellow vertical mouse user, I can tell you I'm never going back!

What mouse and tablet did you get? My wife is also an artist and I got her a Kamva Pro GT156 V3; she loves that thing. (if you are curious)

Make sure to take your time to properly recover! Also, about time to get that left arm practice!

Your wife is a great artist, congrats!
I've bought an XP-Pen Artist 22EPro, but I found myself struggling too much with the lack of configurable keys (even if this one has 16 of them). The vertical mouse is a standard one, I'm actually using it for when I'm not drawing and it's helping me a lot! The plan is to use my previous mouse only when I have to draw and animate, then I'm gonna switch to the vertical for anything else! 


Wrist update: I'm almost ready to start drawing again! I've tried drawing a bit during the last days and my wrist is getting better and better, even if it still hurts after a while!
