To avoid muscle pain when working on the computer, make sure that your keyboard is at the right height. Your hands and forearms should be parallel to the floor. Aim for a neutral position wherein your forearms and elbow joints form a 90-degree angle. Wrist pain starts when you raise your forearms and bend your wrists down to reach the keys or when you bend downward too much on a negative tilted keyboard. Also, keep your head and torso aligned. While it’s alright to bend forward slightly when typing, you should keep your back straight and your shoulders relaxed.
