And if his wrists hurt, he's definitely doing the right thing by laying off.
<soapbox> I _know_: 8 months in a neck brace due to cervical spine damage (don't hunch forward while reading cool/clever code). 1.5 years physical therapy for that damage (permanent, _do not_ hunch forward while reading cool/clever code). 7 months paralysis of left arm (don't put weight on your elbow on hard surface while reading cool/clever code) 5 months paralysis of lower left leg (don't cross your legs while leaning on left elbow while...).
The nerve damage can be helped a bit with massive doses of vitamine B if you're lucky, but they don't fully recover in my experience. Bones don't recover at all.. ever.
Remember the thousand times your mom said sit up straight?.. I sure do ;-) </soapbox>
