Sheth I've had cubital tunnel /ulnar nerve syndrome before from my training while on a world class FPS team. I started training 5+ hrs a day 4-5 days a week from 14-21 yrs of age. I'm 28 now.

It was mostly the result of using a tight claw grip on a narrow bodied mouse. I also have permanent wrist problems from poor positioning on the keyboard. Regardless of what a doctor does for you proper ergonomic and adequate rest is the key to minimizing the inflammation in your joints. Also, do not over exert yourself during practice.

Here's what I'd suggest:

Bind attack to Tab, allowing a straighter and more natural wrist posture while hitting 1 attack, 2 attack 3 attack, etc.
Use the CM Storm Spawn or any other wide mouse that has a groove for your ring finger and allows for a wide, relaxed grip
Play Starcraft every other day. Brainstorm/analyze on your rest days

Please take these into consideration.

Hi Sheth. I'm really happy to hear you're getting better and are coming back! I don't browse TL much often now because I kinda lost interest to SC but this news really made me super happy. I remember your FXO days were when I decided to switch to Zerg and your stream was a gold mine of information.

Heck, maybe I'll reinstall the game, and you can be sure I'll be one of your future viewers.

Keep on going strong!
