THE OAKVILLE BEAVER EST Computers a main cause of RSI pain (Continued from page 13) sive treatment and there he learned how to use the treatment more extensively and how to accurately diagnose problems causing muscuâ€" lar pain. "There was a laser expert there at the same time, so I learned about laser biostimulation, too," said the 30â€"yearâ€"old Oakville physician. Back in Oakville, Lamb acquired a highâ€"powered laser to induce muscle relaxation and introduced painâ€"suffering patients to a relief system by incorporating three eleâ€" ments of treatment â€" laser, needles and his own relaxation exercises. "Exercises are important and part of the whole treatment," he said as he described his own relief from symptoms. "Although my condition is not completely cured, it has improved to such an extent that I can run three miles four times a week with no pain. Not many peoâ€" ple with my condition can do that." His "condition" is shared by many. Their diagnosed ailments can include sciatica, whiplash, tennis or golf elbow, lower and mid back pain, carpel (wrist) tunnel, pain and numbness in back or legs, jawâ€" clicking, tendonitis and even fibromyalgia â€" but not multiple sclerosis (MS). Lamb said RSI is a "catchâ€"all" for all these conditions since the underlying causes are the same, stemming from any activity. or stance resulting in tightened, injured muscles that interfere with normal blood flow and nerve stimuâ€" lation. It all adds up to pain. as "You can go to five different doctors and get five different diagâ€" noses," he said. "That‘s what hapâ€" pened to me. And all the diagnoses were rwht â€" similar, but not thef same." y He said the main culprits in this scenario are age, accidents and computers. Newspaper articles deal mainly with RSI as a workplace hazard costing millions in lost time at work. It is the result of constant strain on neck and back muscles when workers hunch over machines. But accidents can also play a major role in the onslaught of RSI, as Lamb can testify. He mentioned a skiing accident last March which injured a disc in his back and, seven years before that, a highâ€"speed water skiing accident causing disloâ€" cation of one shoulder and partial dislocation of the other. He said all these injuries could have predisâ€" posed him to RSI. Similarly, recovâ€" ered accident victims can find themselves suffering with the disâ€" ease once back at the office comâ€" puter, he said. Even though some of us don‘t pound computers, most of us won‘t escape some form of RSI, said Lamb. "If you live long enough, most people will eventually get some degree of it. Thirty per cent will have it by 30 and 90% by 60," he warned. "Muscle injury that comés with age will predispose us to it so that one day you might injure your back by simply picking up a box of chocolates. It doesn‘t have to be heavy lifting." CMHA Charity Auction prizes include holiday Lamb noted that his treatment (not covered by OHIP) is an alterâ€" native one for those who have not been helped by traditional proâ€" grams. Treatment time depends on the type of injury and the patient‘s age. Generally speaking, however, he said the earlier treatment begins, the better. For information, call 844â€"3561.
