I have found that what works best is to avoid using the mouse.
I started getting some symptoms in my wrist, and immediately began to
use keystrokes for tasks, rather than the mouse. It has made a big
difference.
Most products provide keystroke shortcuts for many, if not all, of
their tasks. It is a good idea to start using these for your most
performed tasks (open, save, send, etc).
