4. Use topical analgesic cream or ointment to relieve wrist pain.
The cream and ointments come in heat or ice form. Either one will work for wrist pain. Topical analgesic ointments and creams should be applied in a thin layer and used no more than four times a day.
When it comes to topical analgesics, some work better than others. It involves trial and error. There is no need to use topical analgesic creams and ointments every day. They are only used when you experience pain. As stated before, while you have the ointment and cream on your wrist, you should let your wrists rest before trying to do anything.
Take your time to begin and finish a task. You don’t want to injure your wrists any more than they already are. Also, topical analgesics work best at night when your wrists have time to rest. Just make sure your wrists are in the correct position.
