Question Opinions on Vertical Mice?

[minnin90]

I am considering one as I am having some issues with my right hand. Any thoughts as to if it would help? Also how do they feel, as far as comfort goes?

A lady I worked with was having issues with her wrist and she changed to a vertical mouse. She said it really helped her. I’ve not met anyone else that uses one.

Actually, you should see a doctor first. The right hand issues may not be "mouse related" at all.

Comfort is subjective so you may need to experiment a bit with different mice, wrist rests, and other ergonomic solutions.

And some solutions could prove even more harmful over time.

Still you need to obtain a professional diagnosis before doing anything.

wrist rest might help, vertical mouse might help. I use a vertical mouse for work at I don't really think about it, granted I've never had any hand issue so far either way.
Good that you're seeing a doctor, I imagine they'll probably suggest the same thing we did although "issues" is quite a vague term when talking medical haha. good luck!
