- Cell Phone Elbow
- mobile phones are accused of causing is
cubital tunnel syndrome, a condition known
more widely as “cell phone elbow“.
- Similar to carpal tunnel
syndrome, it is apparently
caused by the frequent and
repetitive use of the cell
phone. It is said that the
frequent bending of your
elbow to hold your mobile
phone to your ear can affect
a nerve in your arm that
leads to tingling sensations
and reduced use of your
hands
- Less frequent use of your phone, use
of your phone’s speaker or a hands-free
talking device and switching of your
hands when talking on the phone are
all ways to combat this rising problem
if indeed it really exists.
