I have known musicians who played those instruments for hours most days for many years without any health issues in old age. Practice,practice,practice!!! when you love playing music. Back off if you note overuse discomfort. When you love to play, you get 6 years of value in 6 months of practice. When you don't love playing you get only 6 months of value after playing for 6 years.
