Wrist Pain Relief: Natural Solutions for Pain Relief

At Arc4Life we have had a number of readers email us about having a painful wrist: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Often times they have been told that they are a candidate for wrist surgery, but they want to wait as long as possible before opting for the surgery route. CTS, or Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, occurs from chronic nerve compression due to overuse activity, thyroid disease, diabetes and for some no reason at all. Wearing a wrist brace is one way to relieve wrist pain.

Keeping the wrist in a neutral position with slight flexion is the key. You can do that easily at night and for part of the day. Also, icing your wrist can decrease swelling and inflammation. Most importantly, changing your activities of daily living, such as tweaking your work station, can make a big difference over time. Simply sitting in a position where your computer and keyboard are placed in an ergonomically correct way can be the key to a wrist-pain free life.

Whether you have been diagnosed with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, or have ever experienced pain in your wrist, you know how debilitating it can be. Find out what you can do to not only ease the pain you are currently feeling, but also to help prevent it from returning in the future without having to go to the Operating Room.
