StaceyPowers Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 Anyone here have trouble with controllers or mice because of wrist pain sometimes? How do you play on those days, if you do play on them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennysplash Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 It’s only when I play for hours that I notice signs of pain on my hands generally. But these days I cannot afford to play games for hours. So I don’t experience any pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyorAlice Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 If my hands or wrists start hurting, it's usually from playing a game for hours on end. If I start experiencing that, then I'll give the gaming a rest and relax for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lens Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 I know that feeling too well. It often happens when you play games for hours which can make your wrist give up on you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It often happens when you play games for hours which can make your wrist give up on you. The only reason one should get pains and crimps in your hands after playing a video game, even after an extended period of time, is if there something wrong with your posture, grip or the way you handle or manipulate the UI device, whether it's a mouse, keyboard and especially a controller. Modern controllers are the product of decades of research, testing and and improvements on the pervious model to make them as ergonomic and easy to use as possible. They are designed to use used by relaxed hands. If using them is causing pain, there's something you're doing wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 I'd advise that you get some kind of massage equipment for your wrist if you're having wrist issues and it's really bad, it's probably best to hit up the doctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Button Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 You don't even want to get me started. As much as I love gaming, sometimes my wrists just can't handle it. Next is to take a break from gaming altogether. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 I sometimes struggle with wrist pain while gaming. On tough days, I switch to shorter sessions or adjust positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
