UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums General Off Topic What means 'Carpal Tunnel'

I look in the FAQ to which title you earn and found 'Carpal Tunnel'. I try to translate it in german to understand, but it seems to be a medical name for an affliction. True?

It is. It is a repetitive motion injury that has an effect on your wrist, usually causing extreme pain. Typing too long with bad form or bad posture can cause it.

That is an oversimplification, however. The second paragraph on this page is a much better description.

Yeah Zarzal your wrists fall off

now its clear what it means. Thanks
