Had this annoying left wrist pain for the last 2 months but usually goes away 1 minutes after completing the exercise, this pain is lasting a few days now so I am worried. Found out that I have been folding my wrists back and holding the dumbells for shoulder presses on the wrong angle with huge weight loads pushing on the wrist which isn't too good. I will take a few weeks off the normal routine and try lowering the weight when I resume to practice the correct form. Not worth risking long term damage when it can be avoided by doing exercises correctly.

When you turn your hand to wrong positions, the tape will wrinkle...... seems to be a good indicator. Hi,

Your article describes exactly the same thing that happened to me recently as well as the reason why. As my strength bench pressing started to increase, I started to notice the same type of pain that you described. It usually lasted about a day, then simply went away. However, the most recent time that it happened--about six weeks ago, the pain just got worse. I haven't been able to lift weights at all since then. When my sprained wrist finally heals, I will try the new technique that you suggest. thanks, Hi Mun,
