After one or two games my shoulder starts hurting and it prolongs for the next 5 to 10 minutes even after i've stopped playing, I don't know what the problem is but maybe some of you here can give me suggestions as to what the problem is.

Your seating position is bad if your shoulders hurt. Get into a better seating position

Looks like my seating position is the cause for everything. I have Tendinitis and a Spina Bifida so I don't know if that has anything to do with my shoulder hurting.

that might be the case. try to get a more comfortable chair, maybe that'll fix it.

Thank you for the suggestions :)

It could also be because of your keyboard positioning. If you use full length keyboards, your mouse might be a little too far to the right. you might want to shift it a bit to the left, but you might need to rebind your keys for that cause you'd be shifting your keyboard too

I had a desk that was too high and when I raised my chair my feet wouldn't touch the ground :oops:

Get one of those fancy motor-powered height-adjustable table and those leather office wheel chairs

Get a better desk and chair.
Kouya-
Lol, this only happens when I play for an hour or two non-stop .

Figures that Dinning tables aren't the best to play osu with .

(But, it's what I got at my Grandma's house, so ~ )

Edit : It could be staying in one position for a long period of time as well, such as not moving your shoulders or neck when playing .

This could also effect your shoulders from hurting as well, on top of your Tendinitis and a Spina Bifida .

my elbow is off the table so my shoulder supports it. which is why mine always hurts

I stopped slouching for a while and tried playing it and my shoulder didn't hurt as much. But it hurts so much not to slouch since i've been sitting in the wrong position for years. But if not slouching will help with the pain going away then i'd probably do it.

Also, they should make a section called 'Medical Advice' lmaoo.

make sitting upright a habit. I've sat upright since a couple years ago and now my back doesn't hurt so much

Yes, trying to do just that, but I involuntarily slouch which makes me cringe at my own disability to sit upright.
