Hi Marshall, I have had wrist problems several times over the years.....both wrists. The cause is not always the same; nor is the pain. My advice is to find a GOOD chiropractor. Also, depending on your case, you may want to have x-rays to see what is really going on in your wrist. Most recently, I sprained my right wrist and was off work for 6 weeks. Cortisone, ibuprofin, etc. don't touch a problem like this. I really depend on my chiropractor. Another tuner friend of mine consults a good acupuncturist for his wrist/arm problems. Do all you can to to avoid cortisone shots. Everyone is different. You have to be our own best doctor. Good luck!
