Video game gives doctor 'tennis shoulder'
A US doctor has blamed a shoulder injury on his new Wii computer console, after spending hours playing simulated tennis.
When US doctor Julio Bonis awoke one morning with a sore shoulder, he could not figure out what he had done.
It felt like a sports injury, but he had been a bit of a couch potato lately - then he remembered his new Wii.
Dr Bonis, 29, had spent hours playing a new video game, simulated tennis, where players simulate real movements.
It was not quite tennis elbow, he decided.
"The variant in this patient can be labelled more specifically as 'Wiiitis'," Dr Bonis said, a family practice physician in the US, wrote in a letter to the New England Journal of Medicine.
