Overworked Mouse Hand Chronic Cold Hand Sign

There’s a lot of talk on the internet these days about a cold mouse hand. It is a chronic condition, there is little medical knowledge about it, and there are products available to help relieve cold hand pain. For many years, I sat in front of a computer formatting images in Photoshop. I had and operated an e-commerce site and was too busy to do anything to address the real problem. There were deadlines to meet, work to complete, and frankly, suffering with the pain of a cold hand was not my top priority.

It wasn’t until I sold my e-commerce site that I focused on creating an energy efficient solution to the cold mouse hand condition. Gathering fabrics, testing the quality, and producing a product became a new job. In a few months, the Mouse Hand Warmer was patented, registered and prototyped. The Mouse Hand Warmer ™ turned out to be a warm, pocket-style fleece blanket to slip your mouse hand inside and keep it covered and warm.

Although there is no solid medical advice on why the mouse hand gets cold, it is common sense to understand that exposed parts of the body tend to get cold. After hours of exposure, using a computer mouse in the same position, it is not uncommon for the mouse hand to get cold. This condition becomes chronic for the computer geek who sits for hours using a computer mouse.

The cold mouse hand can be attributed to a number of medical factors such as poor circulation, arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, Raynauds, DeQuervains, tendonitis, or complex regional pain syndrome.

The cold mouse hand can be experienced in a variety of settings such as air-conditioned rooms, under a ceiling fan, drafty cubicles, winter weather, or cold offices at home or in a building.

There are several products on the market to help relieve cold mouse hand pain. The most practical and cost-effective item is the mouse hand warmer. It can be used only when needed and does not require electricity. In the current energy crisis, that’s a good thing. Anything that is earth friendly can only be useful and good.

Your computer mouse is a personal device. We all have a favorite shape and style of computer mouse. We buy a mouse based on how it feels in our hand and how it works for the type of work we do. Personally, I use a great ergonomically shaped computer mouse from Microsoft. After all the years of working with a computer, it is what suits my hand best.

Another personal computing device is a mouse pad. Mouse pads available today come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors. My favorite mouse pad is a hard gaming mouse pad constructed of metal with a slippery surface. It measures around 12 x 10 inches and works great with my great ergonomic computer mouse.

When designing the Mouse Hand Warmer, I decided to create something that would work with any mouse or mousepad because I didn’t want to stop using my favorite computer accessories. The Mouse Warmer blanket measures approximately 12 “x 12” and has a non-slip surface. It’s a large pocket to store your favorite computer tools and accessories inside. There is plenty of room inside to move around with your favorite mouse pad and mouse. Sometimes when I travel I only carry the mouse hand warmer because it can also be used standalone as a mouse pad. The inner bottom surface is smooth and the computer mouse works on it without the use of an additional mouse pad. The Mouse Hand Warmer is perfect for any work environment.
