I have really bad tennis wrist from working, which has been inhibiting my lifting/tennis/golf playing. I use an ergonomic mouse (the Microsoft one PwC provides) and a mouse pad w/ a foam cushion. I’d use an ergonomic keyboard, but it’s only my right wrist that’s the problem. Anyone have any suggestions?? Massage, massage guns, etc. I’ll do anything

Get rid of the mouse pad with a cushion. Align your chair so you’re sitting at the right height. YouTube has videos on it.

^i had the same issue, my PT told me to throw out my cushion

Make sure your elbow is elevated higher than your wrist when using a mouse

Wrist brace. Wear it tighter during the day and loose at night for a few weeks till the pain subsides. Also be mindful of ways you use your wrists. Maybe you knead a lot of bread for example? I tend to crush mine under my chin when sleeping.
Drop the wrist pad and get a vertical ergonomic mouse, the kind that has your hand facing sideways like you were gonna give someone a handshake.

Laptop stand? Mine is higher but I use traxkpad only for this very reason. Mouse was killing my wrist
