Maybe all the scrubbing to get the green off is massaging the sore arm. :) But seriously, I have had numbness in my finger as well, I also started going to the chiropractor. Another big change I made was to switch my main computer to a left handed mouse. It takes a little getting used to but I do pretty well with it and I love watching people try to "borrow" my computer for a minute. They say it is good for your brain to do things like that too. Have you heard of tennis elbow, I call it "mouse finger". Aaron janet perry wrote: >I, too, have had the sore arm/mouse use problem.
