Vertical mice. I had occasional wrist pain from using a computer, which was annoying since then I’d had to take a break from the computer for about a day to recover. Got a vertical mouse and haven’t had any issues since. Took maybe a day to get used to it too.
Likewise trackballs. Took me all of a day to get used to using a thumb ball (Logitech MX Ergo), my wrist pain cleared right up and I haven’t looked back.
Yeah, they’re not great for twitch gaming, but on the flip side it’s highly amusing to watch people’s brains crash when they try to push it around like a mouse.
A vertical mouse saved me from carpal tunnel syndrome. A few years ago I started developing wrist and elbow pain in my mouse arm along with the numbness. It was getting so bad I would take frequent breaks to ice my wrist and would wear a brace at night. I started looking for ergonomic mice and decided to try out a $15 Anker one from Amazon. I felt relief the day I started using it and within a few days the symptoms were gone entirely.
Hey I think I got that same one, at least it was also was $15 and from Anker. Some of the outer plastic is rubbing off though so I’ve been looking for a new one. Unfortunate not many companies make good quality vertical mice - the only one I’ve seen that seems well built is the logitech mx vertical.
I have been a left hand mouser at work for probably 15-20 years.
An early data entry job made my right wrist prone to soreness from mouse use. I am very much right handed, but left hand mousing 90% of the time feels totally natural now. If I’m at going using the mouse on the right, it’s usually for photo editing or PC games.

I resorted to using my left hand to control the mouse at work, then revert to my right hand at home

I have the same experience, and now I won’t go back to using a regular mouse. They look weird but work great.
