How to prevent carpal tunnel syndrome when you draw for 8+ hours per day?

Draw with your shoulder

>>2399055
Shit advice, because its very hard to draw small objects with your shoulder. Also I dont have much space to use it with ease.
>>
>>2399054
do hand exercises and shake out your wrists every so often
>>
>>2399057
Shit excuse. if shoulder doesn't work go from elbow. Stop crying and just work
>>
>>2399054
Regular masturbation breaks. It really works.

That's why you draw with your shoulder, so you get used to it
>>
>>2399054
You don't.

You just get it and suffer through a pain like a man. Remember that pain is just a feeling, you can ignore it.
>>

or you could take painkillers
>>

Draw bigger so you can draw with the shoulder, remember to stretch periodically and build forearm strenght with weightlifting exercises.
>>
>>2399054
One thing that helps me with the pain is finding the area on the sole of my foot linked to the shoulder and massage it.
If you can feel a knot and work it out it doesn't hurt as much.
That aside stretching and taking breaks.
I also try not to use my dominant hand after a long day.
>>
>>2399057
Then kill yourself.
>>
>>2399341
I will, you dumb cocksucker.

Exercise forearm regularly, don't forget to stretch it. Don't draw from your wrist. If you use a mouse, use it with your other hand, because clicking will destroy your already exhausted hand.

I know everyone is saying "draw from your shoulder", but I have shoulder problems so I just draw from my elbow and works fine. I pivot my elbow on a pillow, on my lap, and it pretty much forces me to draw from my elbow. It's super comfy too.
