//“RSI is not a specific medical diagnosis, but rather a family of disorders. Many people mistakenly equate RSI with carpal tunnel syndrome, even though CTS is only one particular form of RSI. One recent study even reported that frequent computer users are no more likely to develop CTS than non-computer users. Don't let this mislead you, though. Many other forms of RSI do come on as a result of frequent computer use”// (1)

Repetitive Strain Injury is an ailment that results in mostly musculoskeletal disorders (well known as MSD) like back ache, ceased hand movements, joint aches and injured muscles. This happens due to excessive strain applied onto muscles by heavy work hours without taking breaks or sitting in a similar posture for too long, hence resulting in MSD. This usually occurs to people who work a lot on keyboard or mouse.
