If you use a lot of SRS that makes you type out answers, and you have a tendency to do 100s of reviews per day, stop doing all of these on your phone.
I’ve managed to give myself an RSI on both thumbs. Got some serious pain whenever I try to type anything on my phone now, and I’ve decided to mostly stop using it at all for a few months just to let them recover. This obviously wasn’t just caused by SRS; I like gaming too, but I don’t do it nearly as much or as often as WK, Bunpro etc. SRS became like an obsession for me (keep in mind I’m doing typed vocab en masse on Bunpro atm).
I kept pushing even when my thumbs hurt badly and now they hurt even when I’m not using them. Stupid, I know, but appetite/addiction is hard to resist at times, especially when I just want to do my reviews lying down in bed and can’t be bothered getting up.
Don’t be like me. Your hands/wrists/etc are important. Doing all those reviews on your phone at high speed puts heaps of strain on your tendons, as I have recently discovered. If your hands hurt, stop.
Anyway, I’m going to keep to a proper computer keyboard for a while now, and reduce my SRS load across the board quite significantly for a couple of months. There are plenty of other ways to practice, after all.
