carpal tunnel syndrome. He should do arm and hand stretches every few hours.
there are special mouse and keybords supports to avoid that


Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) or Median Neuropathy at the Wrist is a medical condition in which the median nerve is compressed at the wrist, leading to pain, paresthesias, and muscle weakness in the forearm and hand. A form of compressive neuropathy, CTS is more common in women than it is in men, and, though it can occur at any age, has a peak incidence around age 42. The lifetime risk for CTS is around 10% of the adult population..

Most cases of CTS are idiopathic, without known cause. Repetitive activities are often blamed for the development of CTS, along with several other possible causes. However, the correlation is often unclear.

It is a multi-faceted problem and can therefore be challenging to treat. Still, there is a multitude of possible treatments, e.g. treating any possible underlying disease or condition, immobilizing braces, physiotherapy, medication, prioritizing hand activities and ergonomics. Ultimately, carpal tunnel release surgery may be required. Outcomes are generally good.
Physiotherapy offers several ways to treat and control carpal tunnel syndrome. This procedure should be directed specifically towards the pattern of pain / symptoms and dysfunction assessed by the therapist. As such, it may include a range of modalities ranging from soft tissue massage, conservative stretches and exercises and techniques to directly mobilise the nerve tissue. It can also include the aforementioned immobilizing braces.

Clinically, sometimes a patient will present with a hand that is very inflamed and swollen with severe symptoms of pain, tingling and numbness and almost a fear of use due to the pain. In these cases a physiotherapist may focus on techniques to reduce the pain and inflammation, and exercises to encourage improved circulation. A comprehensive review of effectiveness of hand therapies in carpal tunnel management demonstrates that there is some valid scientific evidence for a range of therapeutic modalities. For instance, Body Awareness Therapy such as the Feldenkrais method has positive effects in relation to fibromyalgia and chronic pain. Structured exercise programs using these therapies to reduce wrist pain have been developed

When will people start recognizing that CURVED keyboards are much less likely to cause Carpal Tunnel Syndrome? When you have to keep your wrists turned in to use a narrow, standard, cheap straight keyboard, to keep your HANDS straight to the keyboard you have to turn IN your wrists together, so you put pressure on the nerves which eventually go numb and do cause pain.
People with wider shoulders especially should have curved keyboards, the approach angle of the hand allows the wrist to stay STRAIGHT ! Curved keyboards are more natural to use.
Encourage your bf. to get a curved keyboard. It does NOT take long to learn to use them.

I'm not really sure I understand the question, but it sounds like Carpel Tunnel Syndrom maybe.
