comfortable mouse?

I'm using an expert mouse now. I've never had muscle problems before with
the expert mouse but I seem to be developing a problem in my wrist. I think
it's associated with the positioning of the expert mouse. It lays flat on
the desk. I'd like something that is a bit more tilted/twisted.

Any suggestions?

 

As a quick note from one who had the problem with 2D CAD in the mid
80s I'll just say that I did the following which eventually worked:

1. Lower the keyboard & mousing &/or table area down as close over my
knees as I could.

2. Used a low height mouse (as small as I could get) or trackpad

3. Learn to do the mouse/trackpad movements with almost no tension or
hard force on buttons &/or trackpad to ease the tendency to have
continually tense muscles & tendons.

4. Chose an off-duty hobby that gives some independent hand wrist
activity each day, that is quite varied; rowing, basketball & swimming
come to mind.

5. Take breaks every hour or two and do some form of hand stretching
& relaxation at least.

I remember times "back then" when I would sit down after lunch and not
look up from the screen until 5pm and wonder where the time went, and
eventually realized it was partially behind my wrist pain.

Lots of prior posts can be searched on this group.
