I had (1) RSI too. The solution is in ergonomics, not a new mouse or keyboard or wrist support or whatever.
It's all about the way you sit in front of the computer.
Your wrists should be around elbow-level or a little lower when typing, your feet should be on the floor, and the upper half of your screen should be roughly at eye-level or a little below.
All of this is affected by the height of your desk, your chair, and of course your monitor.
- Are you using a laptop and looking downwards at the screen? -Expect neck pain.
- Are you sitting too low? -Expect pain in your forearms.
- Are you sitting too high? -Expect wrist pain.
1) I still kind of have RSI. If I'm doing something wrong, my forearms get irritated quite fast.
