A mortgage banker in Philadelphia spent over 12-hours a day texting her clients with her iPhone. Apparently the tendons in her thumb became inflamed that she had to have surgery to remove them, this is commonly called “Blackberry Thumb”. Other symptoms of this “BlackBerry Thumb” or now “iPhone Thumb” are pain, numbness and tingling. The women said “I’m texted out” and will be recovering over the next couple months.
