Just 'cause pro gamers compete from comfy chairs doesn't mean they can't get hurt ... so says the FaZe Clan co-owner, Apex, who tells TMZ Sports video game injuries are a real thing!!
"I've heard of career-ending hand surgeries, for sure," Apex told us out in Hollywood on Monday.
"People get carpal tunnel. I don't get that into it, thankfully. But, some people legit stretch their hands, they do a whole thing of warm-ups to make sure they don't."
Apex even says one of his gamers had to sit out several months due to injury and couldn't play!
