Stretching breaks: Stretching taking breaks shifting tasks watching positioning and just knowing when too be on to another activity can help greatly. If your choices are made for you ie you can't alter your workflow easily talk to your supervisors about implementing some safeguards . Above all get a proper diagnosis if you feel there is an issue. Too often i see tendinitis as a label when in fact it is something els.
