Oh, no! Please stand down, so you can take care of yourself....

Buoyant Citrus

Might I suggest a variable foot pedal?

Nathan Smith

Your work ethic is inspiring. I hope you take enough time off to heal. Please don't injury yourself rushing to augment my spank bank

FighterFigger

It takes only one hand to read your comics, I never figured it may take two or three hands to draw them.

SidenCorp

ya you gotta heal take it slow

Gray Muzzle

It's all fun and games until you start to lose feeling in your hand....Ask me how I know.

I often see you posting stuff over the weekend also. Maybe sticking to weekends as days off to cool those big porn generator arms of yours would do you some good. You know, the whole work life balance :)

Simon Dahl

As others say, don't overwork or stress yourself to the point of injury. even now I think most people would understand if a break on your part is taken/needed. If it helps you decide, the game developers for Deep Rock Galactic, apologized for a lack of updates in the upcoming week, as the team was taking the week off to spend time with family over holidays. The fans' reception was overwhelmingly positive and even encouraging it. so Take a couple of days of if needed.

Your health is more important than the speed that you can post so take it easy and get some rest.

RSI is weird. It aches a bit then goes away, spends ages barely noticeable or a minor annoyance and then one day it's just debilitating out of the blue. Should go away on its own though if you give the arm a proper chance to rest.

Don't push yourself buddy, you don't need to hurt yourself for our entertainment, learn to get some r&r every now and again

Dude, you do not have to prove the phrase “suffering for one’s art.“ RSIs suck.

Don’t push yourself too far my friend, don’t want to permanently damage something.

Steve

Don't ignore that stuff. I once lost all feeling and grip strength in my hand working a factory operating a paint gun for 7 12s for a full month. A 1 year old could have pried my fingers open if I was resisting a hard as I can. Good news, both muscles and nerves can make a 100% recovery, if and only if you give them time to heal.

I tell ya, back in my day we use to have to work 15 hours a day. We were required to colour two entire comics and bind them before lunch and we didn’t have none of that their fancy shmancy computer thingamahjig. We had slate tablets and chisels, by golly, and we liked it that way. No idea where that came from, but hopefully it gets a chuckle or at least and eye roll out of you during your recovery.

Take a vaca

Don't worry too much about pressing on, please rather worry about getting fully healed.

Ygor Matheus

You should get some rest, man. Someone like you who draws like this really needs a few days to rest. Take the time you need.

Caffina

Just rest up and take it easy. Don't want to get carpel tunnel

If you need to take a break we’ll understand you put out amazing content more consistently than most others Artist already you’ve more than earned the rand r

CocoLoco

We understand and you've been putting out a lot of great work so no worries.

Indigo Lotus Fist

See a massage therapist and ask for muscle soothing therapy and deep tissue massage for you extensors and flexors of those fingers

rah

Nice, Shao-Lin training arc: One hand behind my back style!

Nividust

Not a doctor of course but maybe some gentle massage on the sore areas and mild stretches can help alleviate the pain somewhat later on ^^ and of course using said muscles just a bit less

Ragnarok

Solution: BGTC Chapter 4?

Mari Mcgee

Don't push yourself too hard.

pokediginut

Please don’t hurt yourself for works and frankly our sake. Rest yourself as much as possible before returning to Work. You needs your arms and hands

Matt letterman

I’d recommend those massage guns that offer soft tissue attachments. I use it for carpal tunnel

Reptiles of Lustria

Sounds like my old college days. BAWLS and DOOM. High 5 fellow lifewaster!

Johnny Nielsen

I know that kind of feeling. I get it when I sit and game for a few days straigth. Best option is to take a "long" pause and do something else. Hug the wife, take a walk, don't sit down doing this for longer than a few hours at most for a week.

Reptiles of Lustria

A wrist injury from too much p*rn? Quite a common injury, a Repetitive Satisfaction Injury or RSI I believe is the medical terminology.

Ed Daniels

Sorry to hear that, hopefully it heals soon. Your health is more important than speed

IceCreamDirge

In the past week you've put out 3 dynamic images and an ask. RICE the arm!

Tyrdrum

Sounds like the arm is lost, best amputate it. /s Take it easy.

Emmy Castile

Just saw the arm off.

Jay Naylor

Yeah, it's the muscles on the top of the forearm that are responsible for pulling the fingers back and up. Mainly the middle and ring finger.

Chris Giesy

Get well soon. Take all the time you need.

Nividust

Thank goodness! I do not miss having that

Rose Head

Ice tea with lemon and honey take a break you more than deserve it

Gibson

You're like me. Have to keep moving at the expense of further injury, lol. Heal up fast sir.

Jay Naylor

It’s not carpal.

Leo G.

Take a break for sure. Also, try a tennis elbow strap. It slightly changes the position of ligaments in your forearm in ways that seem trivial, but really do help. I have this one and it's very comfy: https://www.amazon.com/Zofore-Tennis-Elbow-Effective-Relief/dp/B01LM1G12Q Dunno that it will help, but it's only $14 and will come in handy at some point.
