A solid small standing desk can be a good pick! For me wrist pain is dependent on a fraction of an inch so I need to set my desk at an exact height. Seems like the cheapest that gets good reviews is the Flexispot desks

I can recommend the Ikea "FREDDE" desk. US$369.99 new.

Yes, it's marketed as a "gaming" desk, but don't let that fool you.

Or, if you don't need the top shelf:

I can't speak to the sturdiness of these desks but I have some of this company's shelves and they're quite well made for the price. https://origamirack.com/collections/desks

Might be worth checking their open-box section too.

I've learned to love the lift desk! Takes a little assembly, but nothing major. Comes with a motor that lets you adjust the height as needed. This is one, but there's many different types, colors, and sizes available:

You could get one of those laptop desks to help out. They're small, designed to roll out of the way and tuck in places when not in use, and a lot of them are sectioned so you can tilt and angle them how you need. Plus they're generally under $40.

When I would get wrist pain when playing an instrument, typing, playing a game (arcade stick, mouse, etc), it was because I didn't have good posture. I'm certain the pain will go away if you fix that, because It did for me and every time it creeps back up it's because of improper technique. Proper posture of your shoulders, neck, back, and wrists reduce overtension of your muscles by a lot. Since tension is what allows you to do fine hand and finger movements precisely, less tension from correct posture results in a longer time being able to be tensed at the PROPER for the right ammount that enables you to actually draw/aim/shoryuken/noscope.

Any of the Ikea table tops (or counter tops) (starting at like $20) and either just legs ($20 for a set of pole legs) or a combination of drawers /shelving (will cost a bunch more, $60+)etc to prop it up. Measure it up to your sitting height then it can be adjusted with a variety of cabinetry feet etc. (you can google for information on proper ergonomic measurements) Basically lets you fully customize it to your needs and on the cheap too. All while remaining tasteful and not "gamer".

You can also buy sit/stand legs to go with the table tops from IKEA as well but i prefer customizing the cabinetry honestly and sit/stand are always a tonne more expensive.

As Colada mentioned posture is 100% important. the TLDR is feet flat on the ground, legs horizontal and back straight. But you can google exact information. How you sit will directly impact where you are putting weight and strain on your wrists. Screen distance height and angle is also important as you never want to be leaning forward or slouching down, im not entirely sure how this works with graphical tablets though.

Research research research, if youre unsure about how/where something should be positioned look it up, and do what you can to fix it. Many default options are just terrible for ergonomics, keyboards are too high, desks default height is usually for people just under 6 foot, screens are too high for a lot of people etc etc.

Also a brief break every 30 minutes and stretch and exercise regularly, you can look up stretches you can do for your wrist/hand or see a specialist. Im sure you already knew this but figured id mention it just in case ^^

Ikea has some decent small and midsized desks.

Adjustable desks always a plus, but pricey.

Definitely look into wrist braces and wrist rests. Usually look like small angled wedges

Had this exact discussion 2 days ago on a model-making Discord, for my work desk:
https://www.ikea.com/ch/fr/p/fredde.....noir-50219044/

Basic office/PC desk. Its simple, decently cheap, has a LOT of space on it for everything you might need (including vertical space) and can easily accept all your gear. I upgraded mine with some SKADDIS panels screwed to the back for more storage (mostly my tools) but for you it could work too if you put your drawing supplies in to it, like paper blocks, pencils etc.

Alternatively you got those electric liftable tables, but those tend to be expensive iirc HOWEVER, they're really God's gift to us artists because of just how adjustable they are which could be worth the investment for your own health over time.
