A member asked:
I've got severe wrist pain constantly. are there painkillers recommended to lessen the pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO: The key is making the diagnosis and understanding why you have the wrist pain. Many problems can be treated easily with a brace, shot or anti-inflammatory meds. See a hand surgeon for an evaluation and find out what is wrong!
