In Response To: Re: swollen left hand (Robert N Pruden)

: Lee,

: I've been having problems with my right wrist lately, numbness and tingling.
: I've found that by using a paddling technique that includes more stomach
: turning than shoulder/wrist action I've had fewer problems. Hoep this
: helps.

I paddle unfeathered and find that opening the pushing hand on each stroke prevents sore wrists. Numbness and tingling are signs of nerve damage which, if severe, can be irreversable so take action now.
