Repeated actions taken by human fingers on the buttons on mobile phones can cause interference that previous chronic pain experienced by people of many types. The possibility that the relationship caused great concern considering how many teenagers and young adults, and more and more people in the ranks of the profession recently typed text, "said Judith Gold of Temple University in Philadelphia, who made the first study on the potential relationship. Typing text messages is a relatively new technology, says Gold, so today is a new era of research for those who study economics.
But are the relationship between the wrist channel syndrome, bursitis, and tendon for office workers and others who spend most of their day typing obvious. And given the similarity in body position, the findings from research into the wounds caused by excessive computer use can be applied to the text typing action. How to position the body is to type the text - back and shoulders motionless while the fingers move quickly - a position similar to typing on a computer, "Gold explained as reported LiveScience senior writer, Andrea Thompson, the network livescience.com.
Previous research has found regarding pain in the elbow too much thumb-typing text. Case reports from doctors also refer to the individual conditions of tendonitis, and Blackberry texting thumb. There is show that something was going on, "said Gold to Livescience. For seeking a broader relationship between typing text and chronic pain, Gold and his colleagues sent a questionnaire to 138 students asking them to report the number of text messages they sent each day - in four categories: 0, 1-10, 11-20, 21 + messages - and convey that they feel disturbances in the body map.
The study shows the relationship between the number of text messages sent per day and shoulder discomfort. The impact seemed specially delivered by a man, although Gold said he did not know why happen like that. What have we seen so far are very similar to what we see on office workers who spend most of their time at the computer, "said Gold. However, the study did not mention Gold is also the amount of time spent on the people surveyed to type in computers, conditions that can affect the results.
Gold said that further research is needed to determine the use of computers and confirm the relationship of pain due to typing text. There is a new problem and I think it has not taken a final decision, "he said. Gold Findings presented at the annual meeting of the American Public Health Association, held in mid November Philadelphia.
