I bought a mouse pad with a wrist rest - moderate success.
I cut the legs off my desk to lower it to the same height as the arms on my chair - (so my arm is level) - moderate success.
I changed mouse hands & use my left - the best solution.

Now, I don't have carpal tunnel - unless I get lazy & mouse with my right hand. It only takes 20 minutes & it starts to return . . .
