ive been playing bass/guitar for more than 10yrs and have always warmed up, taken regular breaks, etc.
about three days ago for the first time ever i got a pain in my fretting hand, and have to stop playing for at least 2weeks.
the interesting thing is, my doctor says i was doing everything right to prevent an injury, but even if you do so you can still develop an rsi. apparently drinking coffee,or alcohol greatly increases the risk of injury, even if you warm up properly, and whilst you practice you should drink water regularly.
