You can learn to use anything if you practice. I agree with Paul. The most comfortable thing for me is a large trackball. The problem for you though may be that it's usually controlled mostly with the middle finger. There are trackballs that are controlled with the thumb. You might try that. The other thing is that you can switch hands and use the other hand. Back to my first statement...you can learn to use anything if you practice. I've had hand problems of one sort or another for my entire adult life. I've used trackballs, track pads, and Wacom tablets, both left and right handed. Right now I'm using a regular mouse left handed. Pick something that's comfortable, then make yourself use the thing exclusively. It will be awkward at first, but within a couple of weeks, you'll have no trouble. Anyone else who tries to use your computer will be flummoxed though (I keep a spare mouse for other people to use), but you will be just fine.
Also, ii assume you're right handed. Right handed people never think to try to do things left handed. Have you tried to switch the mouse to the other side? |
