Change positions regularly. If the hand is up and the wrist is down on the desk while using a mouse compression occurs. If sleep with elbow bent hand on ear the splint will not do much.

Years ago, I had a Dr do a bunch of general tests, cholesterol, CRP, etc... and the cholesterol tests were more detailed than just the usual HDL, LDL, Total Chol.
It turned out that I had high CRP, which I think indicated high inflammation. I also had high cholesterol. He was going to recommend statins. I told him that I wanted that as a last resort. He was OK with that and recommended several non-prescription supplements. I think the bulk for me where Omega oils and Vitamin D with K, but this was the main supplement. I think I was taking 4 of these per day.

I think he also recommended the Nordic Naturals Omegas and Thorne Research Vitamin D2 with K drops.
Then based on several posts/threads here, I bought this book. "The Great Cholesterol Myth: Why Lowering Your Cholesterol Won't Prevent Heart Disease-and the Statin-Free Plan That Will"
Based on the info in that book, I increased my fiber intake and decreased my sugar intake. My next check showed that my CRP was well below the recommended limit, and my Cholesterol was good (a decrease of 100 for total cholesterol, HDL increase, LDL decrease).
I brought that up because sugar causes inflammation. Curcumin helps reduce inflammation.
