Hi, It's been 6 months and I still have wrist tendonitis...
at least I think thats what it is.. first off when I first noticed it hurting I went to a doctor they told me it was wrist tendonitis gave me some sort of advil and told me to rest my wrist now.. I tried not to use my wrist and I took the pills... and my wrist it didn't hurt not until I'd get on my computer and put my hand on the mouse it would suddenly feel weird and the longer I left it on I'd start to feel pain...
Now... I tried my best by icing it and everything for at least 1-2 months and sort of gave up.. I still try to stop using my wrist when it starts hurting but it really isn't that bad at all.. it's more annoying and sometimes I feel it in my muscle just before my elbow..
i'm 21 years old.. I know the cause of it is most likely my mouse I bought a 100$ ergonomic mouse.. but yeah.. I'm just confused and I really want it to heal and it seems the doctors I go to don't know anything about it so now i'm about to try heat.. and then exercising my wrist and my arms not sure if that's the best idea ..
just want your take on this and wondering if I should do that next or what you think I should do.. also I haven't noticed it get worse.. I can play on my computer and not have any pain for about 2 hours sometimes longer and the pain is so little....
not wanting to go to a doctor again but I might have too.. I don't want to live with this the rest of my life.

Hi $100DollarMouse!
Sure. Exercise is always good...if it helps more than it irritates whatever ongoing Tendonitis dynamic that you have.
It's predictable that slowly or quickly, over time, your Symptoms of Tendonitis will get worse and worse.
You don't want to live with it the rest of your life. Great! Then let's start getting rid of it.
