Hey chief, I read your tags and I'm gonna need you to start doing wrist stretches regularly. You sound like you need it... And probably a wrist brace. Depending on the brand of wrist pain, you can try applying heat or cold to it to soothe it also. ❤ Please stay healthy and treat your body kindly!

ohhh yeah I'm just complaining orz but I've been having wrist/arm related pain since I was 18 and even went to physical therapy before... but in the past 2? ish? yrs it has gotten a lot better than before! I used to grt flareups that would last weeks or even months... But now my flareups usu last a few days or a week at most. And the pivotal factor that started thjs improvement is because I started doing some light weight lifting every other day (wish I was disciplined enough to get Buff... but I think of this as like. recharging my drawing stamina and usu draw the day of or day after)

tysm for ur concern!! I do know to do wrist stretches (sometimes I don't bc of hyperfocusing tho🫠 and end up not taking breaks and overdoing it... which is my problem... )

#But I think doing the exercises helped me lot more than the brace did #i did try that before #only strength exercises helped noticeably #if i didnt start doing that #youd see me posting only like #once every 2 months #instead of almost every other day kdjfj #ask #o yea it was so bad tho #i suffered throughout my entire college yrs #had to get disability accommodation (it wasnt much just to ensure i could use my laptop to type n stuff)#and i p much stopped drawing and writing w a pen #like i switched to typing to take notes #and for the past 2 yrs ive drawn almost 100% on phone #did u guys know the reason thats why i switched to phone dkfjs #i think i forgot to mention that recently #but thats why... not just out of convenience or to be quirky XD its bc it feels less strenuous than pen(ie paper/tablet/ipad)#tho it does make my hand/fingers cramp up if im not carefulll #like now :(#pain pls go away soon
