I started having wrist pain in the fall and it has flared up a lot recently. My PCP and a hand surgeon both said they had no idea what it was, since the location of pain was inconsistent.

folks with wrist injuries: how have you coped? I feel lost without a diagnosis. I stretch and I take breaks and I have ergonomic equipment, and still I am in pain. Any advice is welcome, as are any sympathies or commiserations

Do some light strength training to build up the muscles in your arms and wrists

My dad has chronic wrist pain and he recently got a copper bracelet. I’m not sure if it’s worked but maybe do some research on it or give it a try- I think it was less than $20

Is there tenderness to touch, inflammation, stiffness? Is it more painful at a certain time of day (ie after waking up). Do any other joints have slight pain? If so, may be worth asking your pcp to run a blood test or get an x-ray. Could have the potential to be autoimmune related. I say this because my first symptoms of arthritis started with unexplained ankle pain, then a year later unexplained finger inflammation & pain. PCP originally tried to say I injured myself without knowing somehow & the ankle pain should go away on its own, spoiler it never did. Anyway, good luck figuring it out & managing the pain!

I have wrist pain but the pain is pretty consistent location-wise. I’ve been going to a PT for something else but asked them about my wrist and they’ve had me doing worst strengthening exercises that have helped a lot! Maybe something to try?

Wrist* strengthening ha

She says that even though delivery people play a pivotal role, they are not paid well. In her team, she sees technical people earning 45-50 at 10-11 yoe. So the factor is 2.5 for delivery vs 4.5 to 5 for technical roles. Per her, this is quite common in Nagarro & she is not an outlier. ctd in comments
