Wrist problems?
14 years ago
See your doctor!
Wrist problems is probably the thing every working artist fears like the plague. We can still draw if we break our legs, but what when our working hand is incapacitated?
Luckily I'm not incapacitated, but my wrist had been bothering me for some time, and I realized that I had to do something about it. My doctor gave me prescriptions for a muscle-relaxing potion, and told me to do stretch exercises and buy a wrist brace (which I did, you can get them at every decent sports outlet). I feel much better now, and my work rhythm is no longer compromised.
So my advice to you is; if you feel something, don't be afraid, just see a professional. You'll be glad you did it sooner rather than later, and can solve the issue much quicker as a result. Happy December! :)

I started having wrist problems in the middle of the year, and only just started wearing gloves with wrist support. They work wonders and I wish I'd got them sooner!
