### Tag Description ###

Video gamers often spend long hours of frantic activity in front of their platform of choice, and this can sometimes lead to health problems. Use this tag for any issues that arise from this; known problems for gamers are muscle strain, vision problems, headaches and even, in rare cases, photosensitive epileptic seizures.

This tag can also be used for questions about gaming accessories that deal with health concerns and for general questions about the effect of gaming on real-life health and activity, as well as questions about ergonomics.
