This little thing right here. Though I'd of course be aware that just because something causes less pain shouldn't be excuse to stress the hand more.
I do also make regular use of an AutoHotKey script that turns the numpad into a mouse, so for regular browsing I use Num0 and Num. for left and right click.
Also note it has no scroll wheel, so some guys where that's an important navigation tool it could be quite an issue. I've lack the time (as in time I can spend without incurring pain) to run into that, just focused on two games.
Clicking is my issue as well (could be that I have short fingers). I wish there was a combination of this mouse and this Joystick Mouse from amazon.
Put the buttons under your fingers like a regular mouse, but being able to make a fist means different strain on your fingers while clicking and an easier time lifting the mouse when you need to.
They do and most are horrible. We "standardized" for our Ergo option on the Logitech M570 awhile back but a few people didn't like it. So we were asked to try other things. We purchased the Kensington Export Mouse Trackball along with a bunch of other ones. All bad all around.
Another random one: 3M Ergonomic Mouse
I love this so far!
Well done. I've spent a few hours thinking about my feedback, and here's what I've got.
Separate Your specific product recommendations and Links to information or other curated lists into separate sections. For example, in the Peripherals section, Your specific peripheral recommendations should appear in a separate list from your links to further information and other curated lists. Likewise, including that top 10 list of ergonmic chairs in the same list as your actual curated list of recommended chairs is unintutive, and you have "free" for it in the price column, which is misleading.
Consider removing or changing the "price" column. Prices on peripherals and products are in constant flux, and you would need to be constantly updating them. Consider just including general price range, like, "low, medium, high, very high," (defined per category (because "High" for a mouse will be much different from "high" for a desk).
One of the main problems of sitting in a chair all day, which standing desks solve, is the hips being constantly bent at 90°. While wobble chairs solve other problems associated with sitting all day they don't all solve this. Kneeling chairs/stools function as a hybrid between standing and sitting, and allow the hips to remain straight or mostly straight.
Add a new section comparing the different options for improving posture at the workstation. For example, in a table comparing standing desk/wobble chairs/kneeling chairs, include in the pros entry for kneeling desks that they are good for you hips and core, and in cons, they can be stressful on the knees. To the existing tables, add columns for/pros/cons of each specific chair/desk/peripheral/etc. Also, I'd say, add your own number/star rating for the product/item, if you've used it.
A. Mouses, information and resources
> 1. Information regarding proper distance and orientation from the body, for both the elbow and the wrist.
2. Vertical mouses, where the hand rests on the mouse in a neutral position instead of pronated. (High Priority)
2. Track Balls
3. Mouse Pads (Low Priority)
3. Information and resources for unconventional mouses for mouse/general interface control, like a joystick/gamepad, or a writing tablet, etc.
B. Screens, information and resources >1. Regarding healthy screen positions and angle relative to one's eye level, to discourage slouching, and encourage healthy posture. 2. Regarding Eye strain and screen brightness/color, like F.lux and similar tools 3. Regarding achieving good posture while using a laptop, for example, raising screen level, second monitors, second keyboards, etc.
C. Keyboards, information and resources > 1. Principles for proper keyboard posture health. 2. Additional options for keyboards. 3. Advice/resources about arm/wrist rests.
>1. Clothing accessories which encourage or force proper posture while standing or sitting. 2. Tools/products/apps to prompt/guide exercise breaks while at your desk.
Just few semi-random things i stumbled on while googling more information for my feedback. >1. I found this relevant paper about posture and laptops 2. Stack52 is a pretty interesting option for exercise at a desk. 3. This vertical mouse and this vertical mouse and this interesting trackball mouse and this mouse 4.

One thing that's helped me with hand pain is this 3M ergonomic mouse.

It looks like a joystick but you slide it around the desk like a mouse. This one has been the best out of the mice i've tried, and I've tried horizontal, trackball, and a couple others.
My hand pain was at the top of my hands. Started to get pain in my wrists now too. I think it's helpful because you're clicking with your thumb, and not your two fingers.
I'd recommend trying it out at least. Love reading the other comments in this thread!
What kind of ergonomic mouse do you use? Have you tried those vertical ones that look like old-style joysticks? For example: https://www.amazon.com/3M-Ergonomic-Patented-Compatibility-EM500GPL/dp/B00008KWWF
It seems that your comment contains 1 or more links that are hard to tap for mobile users. I will extend those so they're easier for our sausage fingers to click!
Here is link number 1 - Previous text "3M"

Have you looked into a joystick style mouse?
This one by 3M looks like it could be good for that.
https://www.amazon.com/3M-Ergonomic-Optical-Compatible-EM500GPL/dp/B00008KWWF
uses thumb for left/right mouse click.
The only mouse that substantially helped me: 3M Optical USB Ergonomic Mouse, Wired, 3 Buttons
