Any remedies or techniques to help hand cramping while writing age 24 .. it hurts enough to bother me..

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Splint: Try splint for carpal tunnel. Cramping may be due to method of holding pen tightly. Should cramping persist, see orthopedic surgeon/plastic surgeon specializing in hand problems.
