Could be a more ergonomic pc, desk/chair set up is needed.

Screen, mouse, chair, desk postures can make for trigger points and overtaxed head/neck /shoulder muscles..

[One rule of thumb is that for every inch that the head is held forward in poor posture, an additional 10 pounds of weight is felt on the cervical spine. So if the average head weighs between 10 and 12 pounds, just 1 or 2 inches of forward head posture can double or triple the load on the cervical spine.]

Oh my! So sorry to hear this! Also sorry I don't have a good answer.

I'm worried about too much screen time myself because I know it can cause nausea, especially staring down at a tablet or phone. :/ But here I am, reading and posting and spending even more time online. Will I ever learn?? Well, I hope I learn before I do permanent damage. But I'm also addicted and kinda need the social support. Sigh!

I think partly posture could contribute to this. I don't have TBI though.
