Me wrist be killing me! (Not the farmers like ARNIE!) - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

Sorry could not resist.
Any way my wrist always seems to hurt. Even before I took up kick boxing. Its my left wrist. I find it so hard to do close grip work at times and well it just hurts at times when im not doing weights(well day after you know)

I think it may be a mild RSI as I have been on a pc for about 17 years now and I hammered it a lot tbh. Other than go to the doctors is there any thing I can do? (Maybe do what them monk guys do break there wrist a few times to strengthen it? - although not practical with my job!)

Hi
I had a similar problem for ages , I suffered and suffered tried ice, rest,ibuprofen the lot . I had it x-rayed and they found nothing, it was worse in the mornings I found it hard doing my top button up on shirts and even doing my shoelaces, finally couldn't stand it any longer went back to the docs and he diagnosed acute tenosynovitis and gave me a cortisone injection , it sorted it right out.
That was about 6 months ago and I am just getting a little niggle back now , I might go back for one more if it gets worse but I have a feeling they wont give you too many yas it weakens the tendon.
Hope it helps

Wow thanks a lot for getting back to me mate. Sounds quiet serious. I think if it does get any worse then I will definatly go.

Reps for you mate!

Yeti - add in fish oils @ 15g per day and Glucosamine at 2g per day and see how you get on.
