It's hard for many of us to imagine life before cell phones and iPods, but too much use could be bad for your health. Ailments such as Blackberry Thumb and iPod finger are becoming more common due to the popularity and over use of these devices.
Blackberry Thumb is described as pain or swelling in the thumb. Its cause is the unnatural position the thumb is in while using the phone to text or e-mail. Blackberry Thumb can also affect your arm, wrist and back. Massaging and stretching the tendons in the thumb as well as moving frequently can help relieve the pain.
