I recently went to the doctor about pain in my thumb (joint closest to the 
wrist) and was told it is arthritis and for opening jars I should get one of 
those kitchen jar openers.  Either the under the counter or a hand held one.

Subject: [Histonet] repetitive wrist injury

Has anyone experienced problems with the histotechnologists or Pathologist's
Assistants developing wrist injuries from opening the small specimen
containers all day on the grossing bench?  If so, how did you address this
issue?  We have had occupational health assess the process; there haven't
been any suggestions yet.
