Comment on Ask HN: Wrist Pain

Comments

I've been wearing "computer gloves" for 10 years, and like them a lot. People made fun of me when I got to college; those same people asked me where to find them after a few semesters (cg/digital art school, so a lot of people going from little computer use to full days).

Sounds like your hands are pretty trashed, so I doubt these will be a magic bullet. Go see someone, start working out, take breaks, etc. But give these a try too:

Note that wearing any wrist support sporadically will probably be worse than wearing none at all. You'll discover this the first time you need to type a bunch and don't have them on you (it won't happen more than once or twice, since it's acutely noticeable).
